After downgrading to tar-1.15.91, it still didn't work. Had to emerge -B basiliskII-jit with the downgraded tar and now it works:
# emerge -K basiliskII-jit
Calculating dependencies... done!

basiliskII-jit-1.0.0-r1.tbz2 - a sample of broken binpkg

[Comment 3 Francois Chenier 2006-10-13 15:12:40 UTC]

Exactly the same problem here.

[Comment 4 SpanKY 2006-10-13 16:31:24 UTC]

this is prob a dupe of 151239

but quickpkg works fine for me, so i dunno

[Comment 5 Zac Medico 2006-10-13 19:20:46 UTC]

Created attachment 99625 [details, diff]
don't use tar's --verbose option because it behaves differently now

This is fixed in svn r4676.

[Comment 6 Zac Medico 2006-10-14 00:56:34 UTC]

This has been released in 2.1.2_pre3.

This is not the case for xorg-server package.
I downgraded to tar-1.15.1-r1, then made 
quickpkg xorg-server and with emerge -avk xorg-server i get this:
...
>>> Extracting xorg-server-1.1.1-r4
tar: ./usr/share/X11/xkb/compiled/README.compiled: Cannot open: Not a directory
tar: Skipping to next header
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
!!! Error Extracting /usr/portage/packages/All/xorg-server-1.1.1-r4.tbz2

The same thing with tar-1.16-r2
