I'm seeing this error too, with the following command:

xtrabackup_55 --backup --suspend-at-end --target-dir=/home/xbm/tmp/xbm-1160806 --stream=tar

It happens when xtrabackups attempts to add ibdata1 to the archive. ibdata1 has a size of 31065112576 bytes, which is apparently more than what is allowed.

The error comes from

if (format_number(archive_entry_size(entry), h + USTAR_size_offset, USTAR_size_size, USTAR_size_max_size, strict)) {

in src/libarchive/libarchive/archive_write_set_format_ustar.c:266 (__archive_write_format_header_ustar)

Is there any workaround for this ?
