Sure, this is the Tramp archive handler. But it shall be invoked only
when the file name ends with ".tar/" - see the trailing slash.

Yes. But is this a real scenario?

Hmm, Tramp shall return with an error message (possibly) or give
up. Will investigate.

Anyway, setting tramp-archive-enabled to nil should mitigate the
problem.

Best regards, Michael.
