There are two problems, and two possible fixes, so two patches are
proposed:

*** /usr/local/src/gnu/tar/buffer.c.dist	Fri Apr 28 15:53:14 1989
--- /usr/local/src/gnu/tar/buffer.c.one-way	Wed Dec 27 14:01:47 1989
***************
*** 935,941 ****
  				goto error2loop;	/* Try again */
  			}
  			if (err == 0) {
! 				msg("archive %s EOF not no block boundry",ar_file);
  				exit(EX_BADARCH);
  			}
  			left -= err;
--- 935,941 ----
  				goto error2loop;	/* Try again */
  			}
  			if (err == 0) {
! 				msg("archive %s EOF ain't no block boundary",ar_file);
  				exit(EX_BADARCH);
  			}
  			left -= err;

*** /usr/local/src/gnu/tar/buffer.c.dist	Fri Apr 28 15:53:14 1989

  				exit(EX_BADARCH);
  			}
  			left -= err;

Hmmm... maybe an eclectic-c mode that would check spelling in
comments, with several selectable dialects?  "lint" with two syllables
for those south of the Mason-Dixon line?

(for the humor-impaired: :-)
