using busybox 1.20.2 and xz 5.0.3 or xz 5.0.4:

$ tar xf linux-3.8.tar.xz

i get: "short read" and exit status 1.
however the data seems to be there (at least partial).



the culprit is the file linux-3.8/drivers/media/tuners/mt2063.c

after doing xzcat linux-3.8.tar.xz > linux-3.8.tar , that file is truncated after 4096*2+512 bytes.

xzcat is from busybox (not from xz, as i assumed earlier)

the .tar file is truncated at this point as well, it is only 200 MB, but with xzcat from xz package, it is > 500 MB.
