[bug #14840] zlib.c implementation in 1.12.12+ still broken

[anonymous]

Follow-up Comment #5, bug #14840 (project cvs):

Does the attached patch solve your issue?  If so, I'll commit it.

It is interesting that this problem didn't show up in nightly testing.  If
you could submit a short CVS session in shell script that reproduces the
problem prior to applying this patch, that would be useful to prevent this
problem from recurring.  For example:

   cvs -z6 co emptyproject
   cd emptyproject
   cat <<EOF >>newfile
   some content
   some more content
   EOF
   cvs -z6 add newfile
   cvs -z6 ci -m 'Force a hang with compression bug.'
