Description:
Not really a bug, but not well documentation and quite annoying.
Paszlib limits the length of the filename (whoe path) to 79 characters. This is because the path variable is defined as string[79] in the gz_stream record.
An easy fix for this is to change the string type to PChar, and update the gz_open function to accept a pchar instead of a string.
