mention POSIX, which triggered me. I think it would be good to specify which tar format to use. POSIX.1-2001/pax format doesn't have a 100/256 char filename length restriction, which is good but it is not (yet) used by default by GNU tar. busybox tar can read pax tars, it seems.

he problem, IMO, which mostly isn't there, because it works fine today. It can also be solved today using shell tools. % head -c `grep -abo 'XPAKPACK' $EPREFIX/usr/portage/packages/sys-apps/sed-4.5.tbz2 | sed 's/:.*$//'` $EPREFIX/usr/portage/packages/sys-apps/sed-4.5.tbz2 | tar -jxf - results in no warnings/errors from bzip about trailing garbage, possible thanks to the spec being smart enough about this. Not having to do this, when under stress and pressure to restore a system to get it back into production, is a plus.

blems in a package (exposed by a compiler or not) then this should ideally stand out during ~arch testing, or even before when the Gentoo maintainer examines the build (might even use -Werror for his own purposes). If such code ends up in stable arch we just made a stabilisation mistake, or got royally messed up by upstream, depending how you look at it.
