I too cannot reproduce this, tarfile seems to recognizes that it isn't a valid
tar file (tested on OS X):
Davids-MacBook-Air:Workspace dibarra$ ls -l
total 8
-rw-r--r-- 1 dibarra staff 0 May 30 1956 testfile
Davids-MacBook-Air:Workspace dibarra$ tar -cvf testfile.tar testfile
a testfile
>>> t = tarfile.TarFile("testfile.tar")
Traceback (most recent call last):
...
tarfile.ReadError: missing or bad subsequent header
