Armin Rigo added the comment: The C reference code in rfc1950 for Adler-32 and in rfc1952 for CRC-32 compute with and return "unsigned long" values. From this point of view, returning negative values on 32-bit machines from CPython's zlib module can be considered a bug. That only leaves open the question of backward compatibility.
