Was still broken - all should work in revision 4207.

It turns out that on SL5 and SL5.1 (and others?) the 32-bit version of ZLIB opens the
compressed output file without the O_LARGEFILE flag, this limits the file size to 2 GB.

Fixed by opening the file ourselves, then attach compression stream using gzdopen().

Revision 4207. (Not tested on Windows - may be broken!)
