error: Error -5 while decompressing data from struct.unpack

[Gary Robinson]

One of our users received an exception, "error: Error -5 while 
decompressing data from struct.unpack," in the course of a 
struct.unpack operation. I haven't been able to discern what Error -5 
is in this context. In experiments here I wasn't able to elicit that 
exception.

There's a system exception EINTR which is 5 -- but that's 5, not -5.

Any help on this would be most appreciated.
