This does not appear to be a bug in 'tar', since no matter what
'tar' does, it cannot create a link that is both there (so
that readdir sees it) and not there (so that lstat does not
see it).  Conceivably it is a bug in 'ls', but most likely
it's a bug in your kernel or file system.  You can try to start
debugging it by invoking 'strace ls -alh' and inspecting the
system calls that deal with klogd.
