Thank you for your bug report Antonio.
I can reproduce it with these steps:
	-create some test files in a directory
	-in this directory:
		$ tar -cvf archive.tar ./
		this command put root directory "./" in archive
	I try to browse it with mc... nothing is in archive

Work fine with this command:
	$ tar -cvf archive.tar ./* 
	who don't include root directory "./"

in conclusion:
when the name of directory archive is only "./" mc is blind.


Best regards

Denis Briand
