Thanks.  It would be great to include a tiny dmg file in
tests/qemu-iotests/sample_images/ and add a test case for it.

The file should be small (kilobytes, not megabytes) and must be
redistributable (no proprietary content or even GPL software, which
requires distributing source code).

Do you have time to do that?

Sounds good.  We have to assume that the file contents are invalid and
handle all cases.

I'll review the next revision of your patch.  Thanks!
