Just to make sure (and for the enlightenment of anyone else trying to
duplicate the problem): you have removed /tmp/jrj/zli before every tar
command, right? 'cause I can't seem to be able to duplicate this
problem on my machines. Do you know which compiler was used to build
this version of GNU tar?

Did you try to read this tar-file with some other tar program? Hmm, I
guess this doesn't matter much; it's pretty obvious tar didn't write
everything out to the tarball, given how small it is.
