I assume that is a very large file. It appears tar doesn't generate
a valid archive when the file changes during reading.
Although unrelated, smbclient had a similar issue, see:
https://bugzilla.samba.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3592
What version of tar is this? If it is not standard gnu tar, is
there source available to look at? How big is the winxp.hdd
file?
