Yeah, it makes sense, just if you look into the bug #69829 . It was extracted 
from the tarball packaged on Linux, and it went wrong. Also I've just found the 
same issue reported with drupal - https://groups.drupal.org/node/315878 
PaxHeaders and all that. We probably don't want to receive more such bug 
tickets and spend time on them, so more clarification will only do a good job.

More info so people just use compatible package which extracts out of the box 
(eq zip can be opened just with the normal explorer). Btw I just got the same 
when I use 7-zip on Windows with our official tarball, even the older one. 

Regards

Anatol
