    I also have written my own tar parser, in https://github.com/bestouff/genext2fs - oh boy it's not easy ! My parser is of course incomplete and won't handle corner cases, which are really plenty. In the end I added libarchive as an alternative to my hand-rolled code because that's how it works best.
