(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

Are you still seeing this issue in recent Emacs versions?  (Looking at
the rest of the messages in this bug report, it seems likely to me that
the errors stem from MELPA outputting empty gzip files, so it might not
have been an Emacs problem in the first place.)
