Running python 2.5 maintainance branch,

Test code is :

import tarfile

f = file(r"nss-3.12_alpha2.tar.bz2", "rb")
tar = tarfile.open(fileobj=f, mode="r|bz2")
try:
        for m in tar:
                tar.extract(m)
finally:
        tar.close()
        f.close()

You can get the file from
http://cekirdek.pardus.org.tr/~ismail/dist/nss-3.12_alpha2.tar.bz2 .

When the script finishes it only creates mozilla/security/nss directory,
if you extract with tar you will see that it also creates
mozilla/security/coreconf directory.

Tarfile created with 1.19 on Linux i686. I can reproduce the same
problem with tar.gz version of the same file.
