Encrypted (small file size raised my suspicion):

Decrypted (suspicion confirmed – data is missing):

*Is this a known bug?*

Also I notice that the original dates are missing, hopefully just
because of a missing flag during extraction from the tarball.

For encryption and decryption, on Windows 7 x64, I used Gpg4win 2.3.0’s
“More GpgEX options” context menu in Windows Explorer.
