Does spec cover any alignment/padding constraints for segments?
What exactly archive size specify?

I'm doing this one [1]:
 1. Reading the header of segment (moved from readSegment).
 2. Check the field value, then either
  3a. Read the segment into byte array and wrap it with BAIS, then
read from BAIS
  3b. Read the segment from global input stream

I can only read first segment, second fails to read with the "bad
header" exception.

Thanks,
Aleksey.

    void unpackRead(InputStream in) throws IOException, Pack200Exception {
        if (!in.markSupported())
            in = new BufferedInputStream(in);

        header = new SegmentHeader(this);
        header.read(in);

        int size = (int)header.getArchiveSize();

        if (size != 0) {
            byte[] data = new byte[size];
            in.read(data);
            bin = new ByteArrayInputStream(data);

            readSegment(bin);
        } else {
            readSegment(in);
        }
    }
