This looks wrong to me as gzclose() would close() the file descriptor
we pass in via gzdopen(), and some code paths of walmethods.c rely on
this assumption so this would leak fds on repeated errors.

It may be worth warning about that at build time, or just document the
matter perhaps? I don't recall seeing any MSIs related to zlib that
have compile with the debug options.
