/home/Kalle/src/elinks-0.12/src/encoding/deflate.c: In function ‘deflate_read’:
/home/Kalle/src/elinks-0.12/src/encoding/deflate.c:96: warning: ‘l’ may be used uninitialized in this function
deflate.c used to call inflateInit2(stream, MAX_WBITS + 32).
This makes zlib first check for a gzip header, and if it doesn't
find one, assume a zlib header. However, if the server said
"Content-Encoding: deflate", then neither header is there, and
zlib does not detect this automatically. So ELinks has to
distinguish between the gzip and deflate encodings, and tell
zlib which one was meant.
This bug resulted in blank pages at blogs.msdn.com accessed
through proxy.suomi.net.
Previously, bzip2_decode_buffer and deflate_decode_buffer left
*new_len unchanged if the compressed input data ended unexpectedly.
This behaviour was also inherited by decode_encoded_buffer,
whose only caller render_encoded_document preinitializes the variable
and so did not crash.
With this change, the functions now store in *new_len the number of
bytes that were successfully decoded, even if more bytes were expected.
An error should perhaps be reported to the user, but I don't think the
previous version did that either, as it returned a non-NULL pointer.
