To file a bug report use "reportbug pigz" and answer the questions… but 
I use regularly "pigz" in my backup scripts and I didn't notice nothing 
wrong ?_?
My installed version is:

~$ dpkg -l | grep pigz
ii  pigz                                                     2.6-1 
                            amd64        Parallel Implementation of GZip

I just tested it and I've nothing to report:

~$ tar tf frankbck2.tgz --use-compress-program=pigz >/dev/null
~$ echo $?
0

Are you sure you are using Debian 12.5 ?

Kind regards.
