have to read a lot of data (e.g. 8 kB isn't enough) before it returns even
the first byte as output. If the other tee children aren't read forward,
this can cause an infinite loop when i_stream_read() is always returning 0.
This is why ISTREAM_DECOMPRESS_FLAG_TRY should be used instead of attempting
to implement similar functionality with tee-istream. */
