The command:
bzcat ../images/gcc-4.0.2/gcc-4.0.2.tar.bz2 | tar xf -
causes these errors

After the untar is finished, there is a symplic link called @LongLinks in the
directory of the untar.
I didn't see this as a frequently reported bug, etc. I did not investigate the
problem too far. This may be an AIX tar limitation, etc. If you want, I can
do futher tests to help track this down.
