The crash is in gzdirect() and the only call to that function is through the new codepath, so I doubt that. Higuita, does the new libxml2 also crash with the old zlib?
building libxml2 2.7.7 against zlib 1.2.3 the crash doesnt
happen anymore... so this is a change or a bug of zlib?!
i build the zlib with debug and got this trace:
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

the gzread.c at line 614 have this:
/* -- see zlib.h -- */
int ZEXPORT gzdirect(file)
gzFile file;
{
gz_statep state;
/* get internal structure */
if (file == NULL)
return 0;
state = (gz_statep)file;
/* check that we're reading */
if (state->mode != GZ_READ) <=== , line 614, crashes here
return 0;
So should i go "nag" the zlib list, or libxml2 is doing
something wrong? :)
Thanks

Naturally the common people don't want war... but after all it is the
leaders of a country who determine the policy, and it is always a
simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or
a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship.
Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of
the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are
being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and
exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country.
