I believe GNU gzip also needs to reject this file, since the file is not a valid deflate format.
gzip is compatible with pigz here. It's not clear to me that gzip should be pedantic and reject input that does not strictly conform to RFC 1952.
I'll cc this to Mark Adler in hopes that he has an opinion. Mark, if I understand things correctly, the complaint is that the attached "compressed" file does not conform to RFC 1952, but gzip and pigz do not complain about it. You can see the original gzip bug report here:
