I had similar problems with the tar format. 3 smaller databases worked,
the biggest did not. Switching to -Fc fixed it for me.
Sorry for not reporting this.

Does it work better if you use -Fc format? There was a similar report
recently, which makes me think the tar-format code has got some kind
of problem, but without a test case it's hard to look into it.
