For reasons unclear to me, when you listfile ,6 into a bytestream file, it
appears to add a space in front of each file name.

Try a variable-record length file.

By the way, if you are redirecting I/O from the CI command line, you can
even use temporary files, so without file equations:

listfile ./DSG@,6>filelist
tar '-cvf tartest - ' <filelist

should work.
