I intent to package libarchive, a library for reading and writing archives.
It seems to be quite robust and especially allows for special read functions
(as I want to use it to read tar archives inside of ar archives without
temporary files).
To cite the manpage:
The libarchive library provides a flexible interface for reading and
writing streaming archive files such as tar and cpio. The library is
inherently stream-oriented; readers serially iterate through the archive,
writers serially add things to the archive. In particular, note that
there is no built-in support for random access nor for in-place modifica-
tion.
When reading an archive, the library automatically detects the format and
the compression. The library currently has read support for:
o old-style tar
o most variants of the POSIX ``ustar'' format,
o the POSIX ``pax interchange'' format,
o GNU-format tar archives,
o POSIX octet-oriented cpio archives.
The library automatically detects archives compressed with gzip(1),
bzip2(1), or compress(1) and decompresses them transparently.

though it might also contain similary licensed code from other authors (freebsd libc),
which I will have to look at still.

It seems that this package already exists in the archive. If you have
uploaded the package yourself but forgotten to close this WNPP bug, please
read the instructions at http://www.debian.org/devel/wnpp for handling
WNPP bugs properly. You should close WNPP bugs in your initial upload
with a statement like "Initial upload. (Closes: #309899)". Thanks.
Of course, it might also be that someone else uploading this package,
in which case the statements above don't apply -- in any case, the package
seems to be in the archive now.
