Neon would try to inflate when avail_in was 0. If there is nothing
left to inflate, why call it again? How is that valid? We're not
yet guaranteed to be at the end of the stream because we're just
inflating chunks.

I was checking out this file from my SVN repository:
http://www.erenkrantz.com/ArtsCore/VanGogh-NightCafe.jpg
Well, whenever avail_in was zero and neon called inflate() with
zlib-1.1.4, it caused Z_BUF_ERROR. And, as stated in the zlib
FAQ (question #6):
6. deflate() or inflate() returns Z_BUF_ERROR
Before making the call, make sure that avail_in and avail_out are
not zero. When setting the parameter flush equal to Z_FINISH,
also make sure that avail_out is big enough to allow processing
all pending input.
I know Ben Collins should be trying mod_deflate/neon with SVN, so he
may also be able to reproduce this case. -- justin
