Isn't there some other way you could do this? We have this nice
encapsulated API to wrap FILE *'s so that the output doesn't even need
to be a FILE * (and it's buffered, so it may not be up to date); in fact
this feature is used to write the file to memory if needed, by
::copyToBuffer.
What you might want to do is to look at ie_exp_GZipAbiWord.cpp and
emulate what it does. This won't provide proper behaviour for
writing to memory, but it seems to be the cleanest thing to do.
