I don't think that Solaris's tar hits the bug every time. Do you think Oracle (nee Sun) would ship something that failed 100% of the time instead of 0.1% of the time?

bug? no, this is not a bug.

native posix tar doesn't read gzip files, gzip does.
gnu tar munged gzip into tar to create a hybrid.

    gunzip -c filename.tar.gz | tar xvf -

or
    gunzip filename.tar.gz
    tar xvf filename.tar

works just great on Solaris and any other Unix platform.
