mosh-server on Solaris + mosh-client on Linux -> client hangs on "Connecting..."

mosh-client on Solaris + mosh-server on Linux ->

Server fails with:

Server now attached to client at IP:51699
Crypto exception: Illegal counterparty input (possible denial of service) in function std::string Network::Compressor::uncompress_str(std::string) at compressor.cc:23, failed test: 0 == uncompress( buffer, &len, reinterpret_cast<const unsigned char *>( input.data() ), input.size() )

The client then crashes with "bus error", which the attached patch fixes. After the fix it crashes with:

Fatal assertion failure in function TransportBuffers::Instruction Network::FragmentAssembly::get_assembly() at transportfragment.cc:128
Failed test: ret.ParseFromString( get_compressor().uncompress_str( encoded ) )

Well, at least now I have something concrete to debug instead of just a hang.
