You didn't answer the question about permissions. You may need to log on as an admin. If those /Mac/..... files are the only ones that untar complained about and it unpacked all the other files, then AFAIK you don't have a problem -- that stuff is Macintosh-specific. Otherwise I suggest you try another means of unpacking the archive. I have downloaded the tgz file and unpacked it successfully with 7zip (http://www.7-zip.org/) -- it should hack the tar.bz2 file also.
