I thought this was solved *years* ago:

depot:~$ ls -l streets.*
-rw-r--r--  1 john  john  2501946753 Sep 22 10:37 streets.dbf

depot:~$ tar czvf streets.tgz streets.dbf 
streets.dbf

depot:~$ ls -l streets.tgz 
-rw-r--r--  1 john  john  129 Sep 22 11:20 streets.tgz

depot:~$ tar tzvf streets.tgz 
-rw-r--r-- john/john -1793020543 Sep 22 10:37 2001 streets.dbf

I'm running FreeBSD 4.4-RC (built Sep 12)

John
