No you're using a non-POSIX compliant tar program:
$ gzip -dc subversion-1.0.4.tar.gz | tar tvf - | grep -E '^subversion/'

produces no output. So far we know that mc and WinZip don't comply.
When we get to 1.1.0 we'll start doing releases in zip format too
because we'll have --native-eol for export.

Search the archives for past discussion of this issue for the details.
