 Is this the error you are referring to?

 I am able to reproduce it deterministically, it seems to be a loader
 memory management issue; too many objects, compressed or uncompressed,
  and the bug is triggered, kept below a roughly 32MB compressed data
 and uncompressed data threshold, it does not trigger. Reproduced with
 both gzip and bzip2 (bzip2 makes it quicker to trigger due to the
 algorithms memory requirements).
