Is the file incorrect when extracted?  or is this a mater of gtar throwing
an error because of the tar format, and an option to bsdtar could be provided
to change the output tar format?

The file is correct when extracted but gtar is, as you say, throwing
an error because of the tar format. The exit error is the issue as in
a scripted environment, as we have, the error causes the failure of the
whole operation.
