Followup, second try.

First of all, I'd like to apologize to the list for my previous message, I borked some finger gymnastics when switching tabs and sent and incomplete one. My fault. Sorry.

Now what I tried to say was:

I did not spot it at first, looking at http://www.gzip.org/zlib/rfc-gzip.html#file-format I see:

ISIZE (Input SIZE)
This contains the size of the original (uncompressed) input data modulo 2^32.
And given gzip -l is usually much faster than -tv I suspect it's just reporting this size.
