Hi Lars,
I wanted to commit your patch into trunk and 1.4.1 branch, however it seems that tests are failing on version 1.0.0 (ant -Dhadoopversion=100 test. Would you mind checking what's the problem? I did not investigated it further yet.

> The documentation claims that Avro files can be compressed as well:
> {quote}
> By default, data is not compressed. You can compress your data by using the deflate (gzip) algorithm with the -z or --compress argument, or specify any Hadoop compression codec using the --compression-codec argument. This applies to SequenceFile, text, and Avro files.
> {quote}
> This is not true as the AvroOutputFormat currently doesn't support compression.
