Yes, me :) just turn around the fp in the tar options:

 "gzcat filename | (cd / ; tar --unlink -xvpf -)"

Just in case that doesn't work, then the archives may be compressed, so the
command should be changed again to look like:

 "gzcat filename | (cd / ; tar --unlink -xvpzf -)"


That'll do the job.
