tar misbehavior? V1.13.19 and V1.13.25

[matt]

In vversions V1.13.19 and V1.13.25  a(as packaged by Redhat in rh7.1 and
rh7.3)  I get diferent results when doing: 

/bin/gtar --one-file-system  -V
"VOLUME-LABEL:sysbak-crust-system-0-20021229-163236" -g
/var/local/sysbak/system/sysbak-crust-system-snapshot.tmp -czvf
/dev/null    --exclude "/cdrom/*" --exclude "/floppy" --exclude "/home"
--exclude "/proc" --exclude "/afs" --exclude "/pub"   / /boot
/spare/700mb /tmp /usr /var 

-and-   (notice order of dir list)

/bin/gtar --one-file-system  -V
"VOLUME-LABEL:sysbak-crust-system-0-20021229-163236" -g
/var/local/sysbak/system/sysbak-crust-system-snapshot.tmp -czvf
/dev/null    --exclude "/cdrom/*" --exclude "/floppy" --exclude "/home"
--exclude "/proc" --exclude "/afs" --exclude "/pub"   /usr /boot
/spare/700mb /tmp / /var

Both begin with a clean (nonexistant) snapshot file, When "/" is first
in list of slices to archive, _ONLY_ slash is processed.  when "/" is
elsewhere, archiving stops after tar reaches slash.  In short it apears
that tar stops processing when it reaches slash in a list of arguments. 
This ONLY happens with the combination of -g and --one-file-system 


Is this a known issue, or am i doing something wrong?
