Silly me, I tested with a ".tgz" instead of a ".tar.gz". So the  
problem is still there, and the "file" command on Linux reports this  
for a ".tar.gz" file:

# file archive.tar.gz
archive.tar.gz: gzip compressed data, from Unix, last modified: Mon

So it's probably the right behavior. Can someone confirm?
