Mangled file extensions in .tar.gz archive.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have encountered similar problems previously, but the 4.4.3 version of Qt 
(open source) 
produced it this time.  I believe they were all from .tar.gz files, however.

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Un-archive the Qt 4.4.3 source archive (for Macs) with The Unarchiver.
2. Look at some files.  Specifically, try: 
src/3rdparty/clucene/src/CLucene/analysis/standard/StandardTokenizer.cpp
3. Note that it is not, in fact, StandardTokenizer.cpp.  The file is now called 
StandardTokenizer.cpp0000664 .  There are other examples in various folders 
(~10), but this is 
the only one I have saved the path for.
4. using `gunzip` and then `tar xf` correctly produces .cpp files.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected The Unarchiver to correctly uncompress the archive.  Instead got 
cryptic build errors 
when trying to make the framework.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS: 10.5.6, all updates.
The Unarchiver: 1.6.1 (according to the Info pane in Finder)

Please provide any additional information below.
Maybe as a backup, use gunzip and tar directly instead of the current, possibly 
buggy method?
I did not do any research to determine if the archive was a 'proper' gzip / tar 
file, as I don't know 
how.  Maybe someone else can research.

Gah!  Missed the kind of error list.  Can someone list this as a bug?  Or 
should I resubmit?
