   I have some large binary objects that I'm trying to handle - about 2.6
   MB. These are intermediates in an image processing routine that would
   helpful to keep in memory rather than writing to a file. [...] 

It seems my reply to this never made it out, nor did my resend.

I tried reproducing Chris's bug with larger and larger files, and got
up to a 28.8 megabyte .gz file (all of my classified email from 2002
through 2004) with no problems at all.  

I even diffed the original versus results and checksummed them...
no difference.  It All Worked Just Fine.

I _did_ have to up the -w size to 64000000 bytes, but that's 
to be expected... and it's documented anyway.

So- Chris- can you send a pointer to this magic file that 
can't be read properly?
