[PyPy-issue] [issue541] bz2.decompress returns partially garbled content

[Christian]

New submission from Christian <wvapex at gmx.de>:

Test set is the first bz2 block (as produced by bzip2recover) from a recent dump 
of the english wikipedia.

Test case:
  import bz2
  print len(bz2.decompress(open("rec00001enwiki-latest-pages-articles.xml.bz2", 
"rb").read()))

produces 
  "901179" with CPython 2.5.5
  "1876027" with pypy 1.2.0

first 24576 byte of output seem to be identical, then follow 24 byte of garbage 
in the pypy output where the original has 17808 bytes of text, the some common 
text ...

test machine is running debian sid with libbz2 1.0.5-4 on amd64 platform
