In the following file, for python 2.6.4, tarfile.list doubles the first character of each member name:

gnu tar handles the file correctly

Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce your problem and ask you to please provide more information. Would it be possible to attach the output or a screenshot depicting the problem? Which operating system/distribution do you use? Have you double-checked your testing conditions?

I can't reproduce it now, either.
