David E. O'Brien 774cd1faf6 Gzip assumes 'unsigned long' is 32-bits wide and depends on this. ... One thing Gzip does is implicitly by store the size of a file into an 'unsigned long' rather than explicitly compute the remainder modulo 2^32 (see RFC 1952 section 2.3.1 "ISIZE"). Thus an extracted file size is does not equal the original size (mod 2^32) for files larger than 4GB. This manifests itself in errors such as: zcat: bigfile.gz: invalid compressed data--length error PR: 66008, 66009 Submitted by: Peter Losher <Peter_Losher@isc.org> Patch by: tjr		2004-05-02 23:07:49 +00:00
