I was just updating my code to use POI 2.0 pre3 JAR and noticed that this 
bug is still unfixed in RawDataBlock.java.  What's up with that?  This was 
discovered and a patch was provided almost a year ago. 

http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=13478

I'm perfectly happy to patch it on my machine and distribute that, but it 
would be nice to fix it in the real 2.0 release soon so we can get some 
test coverage of it. 

Am I the only  one running into this?

For what its worth, if I run with a simple FileInputStream, I never get 
this error.  But if I load the contents of the XLS file into a buffer and 
then pass a ByteArrayInputStream to POI, it always happens.  Make the 
patch and it works correct either way.

Is there anything I can do to help with this to get it moving?
