 Hi,

 after discovering problems with zlib_compressor and bzip2_compressor in
 combination with filtering_istream (#2411, #2318), today I found that
 gzip_decompressor cannot be used as a filter with filtering_ostream.

 This is a little bit disturbing. I just switched all my compression code
 to filtering_ostream only to find that decompression won't work with
 filtering_ostream, but only with filtering_istream.

 My platform is Ubuntu 8.04 64bit, gcc 4.2.3, using boost version 1.36, and
 zlib1g 1.2.3

 Thanks for your efforts,

 Roland
