Martin Panter added the comment:

I suspect the patch is wrong and the zlib documentation needs fixing instead. 
See <https://docs.python.org/dev/library/zlib.html#zlib.decompress> for a 
possible explanation of the negative sign, although it would make more sense 
for compress() which would actually create a “gzip” header.
