I am curious as to why this should still "fail" as the OSX filesystem is case 
sensitive. Finder has no problems with extrating this particular tarball. Do 
you think this is a (separate) bug, or is this by design (why?)?

If this is by design, does it make sense to raise a custom exception from 
TarError, instead of the generic IOError?
