I cant reproduce the fault, so its hard for me to diagnose but.

Are you compiling against uclibc or glibc, what version ?

Are other applets working ok ?

You could try compiling it with debugging turned on by setting
DODEBUG:=false in Rules.mak and running with gdb by doing
gdb ./busybox
> run bunzip2 ../busybox-unstable-20021103.tar.bz2

When it crashes type bt (for backtrace) and it will display some details
of what caused it to crash.

I have changed some bunzip2 code since then but i dont know if it will
effect your problem.
