Subject: Re: LZ77 + DIRECT2 compression MS-OXCRPC

I've noticed this change during my implementation of the compression
function. Without it I wouldn't be able to get a correct output. This
part is successfuly implemented in my code. The problem looks related
to the way MSFT is looking for a match window. It stops too early.

I don't know if its a volontary code optimization, or not. As I said,
I my implementation find a longer match than MSFT. Thus, my compressed
buffer is smaller than MSFT's one. And this compressed buffer is
successfuly decompressed my decompression function.

I mean my output is correct, but I want to have exactly the same
output as MSFT. That's why I've to understand the exact behavior of
the part of the function that should return the longest match.
