Possibly corrupt file failed

I had a recent upload of a .kismac file that may have been corrupted. The file parsed, but ultimately the processing failed. Any chance someone could see what caused it to fail?

Looks like just after reading up to (uncompressed) byte 320227 the top offset into the blob is a gigantic number (3242591731706776074) so our parser stops there. Given this is for version 'svn' and it looks like you filed a bug about it, I probably won't investigate deeper.

Thanks for checking it out. The sole maintainer on the Kismac project just kicked back into high gear and discovered a problem with garbage collection that was causing corruption of files.
