As another shot-in-the-dark you could try saying:

   strace yourArchivingApp yourNormalCommandLineOptions

syscalls (and their return values) fly by, which might
yield a clue as to whether the app is submitting a
bogus request to the system or the system is returning
an unexpected response to a legitimate request.
