I have been able to reproduce it; see attached script. It happens for
inputs of 2GB (decompressed), but not for ones of 1GB.

It seems that bz2module.c doesn't guard against 32-bit overflows when
handling the size of the decompressed data. This affects both the
BZ2Decompressor object's decompress() method, and the module-level
decompress() function. All python versions prior to 3.3 are affected.
