[BusyBox] tar: Decompresion Failed bug

Hi all,

  I saw that tar xjf/tjf in busybox-1.0.0 exit with status 0 even if the 
decompression process is completely failed. This is a serious fault for 
whom are using busybox inside big shell scripts (like me).

  touch pippo.tar.bz2
  tar xjf pippo.tar.bz2
  echo $?

  Is this bug just known/correct? If not I can manage to solve it but 
not before next monday (25/07).

  Cheers,
