BAD version of tar, make sure you are using at least 1.13.19. However, one person on the list had success by manually editing out the leading numbers from the paths and then running amrecover.
tar 1.13.19 or better yet 1.13.25 from : ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/tar/tar-1.13.25.tar.gz ( but NOT 1.13.90 or later, yet).
This works to fix the index-files:
$ gunzip 2004* $ perl -pi.bak -e 's!^\d+/\.!!' 2004* $ gzip 2004*[0-9]
(remove the .bak files afterwards if it's fixed)
