--- Comment #2 from Nick Burch <[email protected]> ---
POIFS has some limited support for non-512 blocks, but it's not ideal, and not
really fixable. The POIFSFileSystem code has some assumptions backed in very
deeply, which are almost but not always correct...

NPOIFS should work fine with both 512 and 4k blocks. The various problems
spotted with POIFSFileSystem have been fixed in NPOIFSFileSystem

However... NPOIFSFileSystem doesn't quite have write support. It's almost all
there, but there's one or two failing unit tests to fix. I've been meaning to
go back to it to finish it, but that has been the case for 2 or 3 years now :/

If you have a bit of time, I'd suggest you switch to NPOIFS, and give a hand to
squash those last few bugs!
