I've made a patch to fix this problem: http://mega.ist.utl.pt/~ncpl/php_gd_patch.txt

The problem: GetDataBlock_() returns -1 on error, but most calls to that function were checking only == 0, thus creating the infinite loop. changing those to <=0 fixes the problems.

Patch applied in all active branches. I keep this bug as 'assigned' as there is other cases which cause an infinite loop.

Pierre, are there still open issues in this report? If not, close this. Open separate reports for separate issues!
