I get the problem. I am using WinXP SP2 with a current version of cygwin and 
bzip2 version:
   bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor.  Version 1.0.2, 30-Dec-2001.
but have replicated the error with WinRAR.

Using bzip2 -tvv I get:

  boost_1_31_0.tar.bz2:
    [1: huff+mtf rt+rld]
    [2: huff+mtf rt+rld]

    [30: huff+mtf rt+rld]
    [31: huff+mtf rt+rld]
    [32: huff+mtf rt+rld]
    [33: huff+mtf rt+rld]
    [34: huff+mtf file ends unexpectedly

Is this a Windows problem?
