Thanks, I see the reason now. Actually, it is a bug of the tar
implementation from busybox. It apparently expects mode field of tar
header to contain full file mode (with file type bits), whereas POSIX
requires that this field contain only file permission bits. Thus,
the busybox tar implementation will not be able to read archives created
by any POSIX-compliant tar implementation.

Sergey
