Despite gzwrite taking an unsigned for length, it returns an int for bytes written; gzwrite fails if (int)len < 0. Because of this, call gzwrite with len no larger than INT_MAX: write in blocks of INT_MAX if data to be written is larger than INT_MAX.
Tested with creating checkpoints.

Hi Marco, Thanks for this. I might clean up some of the spacing between variables and some style things, but I'll get it committed. Ali
