tar: Error opening archive: Unrecognized archive format

There seem to be a lot of pkg fallout mails all with the same error:

   tar: Error opening archive: Unrecognized archive format

This is affecting package building on head -- mostly perl modules from
what I'm seeing, but that may just be sampling bias.

I suspect that something has broken with the latest MFV of libarchive
code in r309299

	Cheers,
