If the fix is from the zlib project, then ignore the following, since it’s
their code.
In Deflater.c: the existing significant code duplication between the arms of
the if-else gives one pause. E.g., in the new file, compare lines 148/183 and
155/190. Might be bugs lurking at 183 and 190.
There might be some room for optimizing alright. The different length
variables are measuring the available input and output length values.
Different action is taken if we encounter exceptions when setting up
memory for related operations. Maybe we can bring more consistent length
checks to both blocks. I'd have to check why we check for native
exception handling in one block and not the other.
In deflate.c: the old code had “s->last_flush = Z_NO_FLUSH”, the new has “-2”.
Should “-2” be symbolic instead?
Sherman is following the code from the main zlib repo for that change [1]

Looking to fix a recent regression that appeared in 8u151. Thanks goes
to Sherman for the src patch. Paul Hohensee has also helped by provided
some test code. I've been able to modify an existing test to mimic the
behaviour seen with FlushableGZIPOutputStream which is found in Tomcat 7.x.
Sherman is working on a patch for JDK 10. For unix OSes, JDK 10 operates
with the zlib version found on the OS.
