I went to the site to download.
I noticed that the extension is <filename>.tar.tar so you should untar twice..

The tar file was created with a (partially broken) Gnu tar. Use gtar to extract it.
Code:
$ wget http://archive.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.30/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz
--13:00:09--  http://archive.apache.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.30/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz
           => `jakarta-tomcat-5.0.30.tar.gz'
