Can you try 2.5.5 on the client side too? I don't think there were zlib-related changes in 2.5.5, but it is worth a try. There have been problems in recent versions with the -z option but I don't recognize that particular one. Can you make a file publicly available that can consistently cause the problem so other people can reproduce it?
