+Subject: [PATCH] Remove offset pointer optimization in inftrees.c.
+
+inftrees.c was subtracting an offset from a pointer to an array,
+in order to provide a pointer that allowed indexing starting at
+the offset. This is not compliant with the C standard, for which
+the behavior of a pointer decremented before its allocated memory
+is undefined. Per the recommendation of a security audit of the
+zlib code by Trail of Bits and TrustInSoft, in support of the
+Mozilla Foundation, this tiny optimization was removed, in order
+to avoid the possibility of undefined behavior.
