I use the standard bzip2 from Cygwin 1.5 on Windows.

Other test:
I have downloaded this:
http://www.fairlite.demon.co.uk/FreeMiNT/builds/freemint/helmut-13012010.tar.bz2

$ md5sum -b helmut-13012010.tar.bz2
7a7e04332994487603986e17a0fc3365 *helmut-13012010.tar.bz2

The standard bunzip2 1.0.2 from SpareMiNT uncompress it without any problem.

If it does not work for you, consider checking your drives with fsck or 
similar tools.
Your problem may come from your disk, RAM, kernel... who knows.
