Perhaps it depends on the OS or filesystem?
I don't think so. Are you using an unmodified version of tar? If not,
can you try to compile it from sources?
Oh, looks like you're probably right about this. It's only the tar
packaged by openSUSE that has this problem; tar compiled from source
emits the error message you described and does not hang. I will report
this issue to the openSUSE packagers.

Tristan
