Thanks for reporting. I just filed Ticket #4024.

DJ / Bruce -- you might want to get on this ASAP.

"Version 1.2.10 has these key improvements over 1.2.9:

   - Fix bug in deflate_stored() for zero-length input
   - Fix bug in gzwrite.c that produced corrupt gzip files

*Due to the bug fixes, any installations of 1.2.9 should be immediately
replaced with 1.2.10."*
