the sizes of the compressed/uncompressed data are wrong. i have tested gzip
and 'tar zcf' and the values are right, but using pkg_create fails.
$ sysctl hw.machine kern.version
hw.machine=i386
kern.version=OpenBSD 5.9-current (GENERIC) #0: Thu Apr 7 17:24:30 EDT 2016
build@node04:/usr/src/sys/arch/i386/compile/GENERIC
it's not just i386 specific though, since i tested the amd64 packages as well.

$ tar zcf test.tgz -I list
and
$ tar cf - -I list | gzip -c >test.tgz
give the expected correct results.
i tried to track it a bit further
$ grep gzip /usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_add/OpenBSD/*
/usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_add/OpenBSD/Paths.pm:sub gzip() { '/usr/bin/gzip' }
/usr/src/usr.sbin/pkg_add/OpenBSD/PkgCreate.pm: $state->say("Creating gzip'd
tar ball in '#1'", $wname)
but perl's not really my thing and so i really know where to go from here.
