This looks like fairly typical symptoms of gnutar being broken. What
makes you think that the archive created by BSD tar was invalid?
As a filename should have no bearing on what extended headers
are set.
Why not? In this case, bsdtar is detecting that the file name contains
non-7-bit-ascii characters and is emitting a pax header for that reason;
and since it can't suppress the pax header entirely, it goes ahead and
emits the "not vital but potentially useful" headers for the device #,
inode #, number of links, and high precision timestamps.
I still see no evidence that bsdtar is doing anything wrong.
