tarfile.open with mode='w|bz2' only creates empty
files. How to reproduce:

1. Create a file 'test' with some random content.

2. Execute the following Python code:

import tarfile
gz = tarfile.open('test.tar.gz', 'w|gz')
gz.add('test')
gz.close()
bz2 = tarfile.open('test.tar.bz2', 'w|bz2')
bz2.add('test')
bz2.close()

3. Look at test.tar.*

test.tar.gz has been created correctly, but
test.tar.bz2 is empty (0 bytes).

Reproducible with both Python 2.3.3 and Python 2.4a2.
