I know. With size, I meant on disk data. In many formats, compressed
data is stored like this:
struct foo
{
int width;
int height;
int on_disk_size;
char data[];
}
Some decompressors have to be initialized by this size. It's an
optimization, so zeros that follow do not have to be stored:
3A 3E AA 00 4E 00 00 00 00
on_disk_size = 5

Ok.
(this wouldn't have worked if grub_errno was zero'ed, like it was
discussed yesterday ;-))
