 This appears to have been fixed in CURRENT with the merge of GNU cpio 2.6. 
 I can't reproduce it there, but I can on 5.4-RELEASE-p7.
 
 I posted a copy of the file in question at 
 http://www.cs.hmc.edu/~nate/sparse-testcase.bin .  It appears to depend on 
 the specific file, since a simple testcase made with echo and truncate 
 didn't trigger the bug.
