Under "Modify the description of GetCompressedTexImage:", it says:

      When
      called, GetCompressedTexImage and GetnCompressedTexImageARB write
      MIN(n,bufSize) ubytes of compressed image data ...

This is inconsistent with every other entrypoint, which doesn't have that language. It also contradicts the "Errors" section, which includes GetnCompressedTexImageARB in the list saying "INVALID_OPERATION is generated if the buffer size required to fill all the requested data is less than <bufSize>" (and according to the "GL Errors" section of the OpenGL spec, INVALID_OPERATION means the "offending command" is ignored) as well as the resolution to Issue #5.
