Peter, can you comment on this?
> The current implementation of BlobInputStream does
> not properly handle 8-bit unsigned data as it blindly
> casts the byte to an int, which java most helpfully
> promotes to a signed type. This causes problems when
> you can only return -1 to indicated EOF.
>
> The following patch fixes the bug and has been tested
> locally on image data.
