I updated the wiki page, as I believe I understand the solution to the problem.


So the page is turning into a general discussion of the unparser data output 
stream collapse/morph algorithm.


The page URL I sent before won't work now, as I changed the page title.


Here's the new URL


https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DAFFODIL/Unparsing%3A+Data+Output+Stream+Buffering

Subject: bug DAFFODIL-1843 - that has me blocked on my pull request


I have a pull request outstanding for a long time now. This is because of this 
bug that I had to really analyze.


I believe this bug is in 2.0.0, and simply has a test now.


Here's a description of the bug. I did it on the wiki because I needed to draw 
pictures.


https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/DAFFODIL/A+Subtle+Bit-Order+Problem+for+Unparsing


I'd appreciate thought and suggestions on how to fix this issue. There are a 
couple of possible ideas at the bottom of the page, but I'm not yet sure they 
work.


Once we have a fix figured out, I plan to morph this wiki page into a 
description of how the unparser works with its stream-splitting technique.
