The specific problem has gone - bsdtar now performs well. But another
issue occurs now:

Ports like mail/thunderbird or www/firefox which seems to install using
bsdtar, install files with weird access bits set: --xr-xr-x
I need to adjust the access bits manually. I do not know whether this is
also libarchive related.
I did not investigate further due to time constraints.

Oliver
