#12 Wide characters interact poorly with memGzip

[David Adam]

A number of our pages were failing to display with webapp.enable_gzip=1 in chirpy.ini, as it would print a small amount of gzipped output and then output an error page complaining about wide characters and gzip.

Perhaps the gzip code in util/gzip.pl could be amended with a patch similar to this:
