Jukka Zitting resolved COMPRESS-197.
------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
Fix Version/s: 1.5
Assignee: Jukka Zitting
The attached file contains a field with three trailing nul bytes, while Commons
Compress only accepted one or two. In revision 1369655 relaxed that constraint
to allow any number of trailing nuls or spaces.
