There's also the `makedirs`'s `exist_ok` optional parameter, `False` by 
default. You could use it to avoid this error, but I'm not an expert on this 
particular library, so I'm not sure if it would make sense to make this change.

On a side note, searching for `_extract_member`, I found a very similar 
implementation of that function in `tarfile.py`. In case I think we should 
apply the same behavior in that module too.
