This is happening because the HTTP headers claim that the feed is compressed 
using deflate, but is not (or the Python standard library is automatically 
decompressing the data). feedparser simply needs to ignore the error and 
continue parsing as if it successfully decompressed the data, so I'll change 
the code so that it can attempt to continue parsing.

My initial inspection must have been a fluke because the server actually was 
returning deflate'd content. However, I discovered that it was raw compressed 
data: no header, no checksum.
