After installing cygwin-1.5.6-1 files created with tar -c <names> | bzip2 > file.tar.bz2 were corrupted (bzip2 reports CRC cheking error when trying to unpack). With cygwin-1.5.6-1 such command works as expected.
I am very sorry, I made a missprint. Everything worked fine with previous version cygwin-1.5.5-1

An example:
bash-2.05b$ tar -c work | bzip2 > work.tar.bz2 bash-2.05b$ bzip2 -t work.tar.bz2 bzip2: work.tar.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
bash-2.05b$ rm work.tar.bz2 bash-2.05b$ tar -cf - work | bzip2 > work.tar.bz2 bash-2.05b$ bzip2 -t work.tar.bz2 bzip2: work.tar.bz2: data integrity (CRC) error in data
You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
