Sorry for replying to myself: I now see that one of the tests is based on
reading a gzipped csv file. At present, I don't think we can do such a thing,
although it shouldn't be difficult to add IMO. Would it be worthwhile?
Maybe so. A bit of a pain to revise all FILE-related function calls
in csvdata.c to use the gzFile API, but certainly feasible.
