> Why is it ever valid to pass a location of 2 and expect it to map to an offset of 0?  It looks to me like this change is trying to mask the bug instead of fixing it.  Please provide justification as why this is valid, or if this isn't the real issue, fix the real issue instead.

I'm fine with this change.  Since the buffer records the offsets prior to the current location and the offsets are stored as int32_t values, this works.  You might want to add a comment that no compaction can happen before this point.
