I haven't found the bug in your code yet, but one thing I
suspect from my experience is you might be reusing a buffer.
std.zlib actually stores pointers internally across function
calls, so if you are trying to compress a stream, you are
liable to get corruption.
(std.zlib is very bad code, frankly.)
I don't know for sure though, my brain is in the compiler
tonight...
Thanks, it seems I'll have to write my own solution for this, and
I really dislike the way streaming compression works in C. I've
spotted some other bugs regarding my PNG implementation, but
those were unrelated and didn't improve the compression issues.
