I agree that the implementation is hacky but the functionality is

- usable by other packages; .osg, .osga, and .ive are leaf file
formats if you will

That, and couldn't they be re-implemented using zlib (which is already
necessary for the png plugin)?

That's probably the prefered solution for everybody.

One problem that might rise up is that not all plugins support reading from std::stream but require to read directly from a file.
