the name of the directory. It's like its not cd'ing to the parent
directory first. Is there a bug here, or am I not configuring

What do you mean cd'int to the parent directory?
gnutar does a cd to the directory you specify as the device (or
directory) name. From that directory is never does a cd anywhere,
