Same here, I cannot reproduce it with Emacs 27, Emacs 28, Emacs 29. Btw,
I believe a more realistic check would be

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ emacs -Q -f tramp-register-archive-file-name-handler --eval 
'(file-directory-p "/home/albinus/tmp/out.tar.xz/")'\
           -f tramp-register-archive-file-name-handler --eval 
'(file-directory-p "/home/albinus/tmp/out.tar.xz/")'
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

It is tramp-register-archive-file-name-handler which might be invoked
several times, and which causes the problem. Could *you* (Michael)
reproduce the problem with this recipe?

Anyway, I've pushed the appended patch to the repositories. It should fix
this problem, hopefully.

Best regards, Michael.
