hm, strange. i have:

evil@sheep:~$ unarj x test.arj
ARJ32 v 3.10, Copyright (c) 1998-2004, ARJ Software Russia. [27 Jun 2004]

usr/bin/namei, Create this directory? Yes
Extracting ../usr/bin/namei           to usr/bin/namei               OK
     1 file(s)

so it's not taking all the ../ into account and also an .arj created with
full path is created in $PWD. arj + unarj are both v3.10.

Apart from it removing one "../" from the filename I gave it, it
worked exactly as I expected.

...somehow i don't expect programs to mess with /usr. not as a user and
not as root.

/me wonders about which version of arj/unarj "doubles" is talking about....
