Checked in, with a change to use "tvb_memdup()" to make a copy of the 
compressed data (so that, if not all the data is present, an exception 
is thrown before anything is allocated).

Is that copy required?  The "zlib.h" in Mac OS 10.3, at least, says

	ZEXTERN int ZEXPORT uncompress OF((Bytef *dest,   uLongf *destLen,
	                                   const Bytef *source, uLong 
sourceLen));

which suggests that the compressed data isn't modified; if so, then

	const guint8 *compr;

		...

	compr = tvb_get_ptr(tvb, offset, comprlen);

without any "g_free()"s of "compr", would suffice.
