This was supposedly fixed in 9.3.  The only work around is to not  
store the raster data as LZW or compressed in any way ( can be set  
with a keyword option using the normal SDE mechanisms for such things).

Another thing to try is to ensure that GDAL links with the zlib in  
$SDEHOME/lib by linking to the sde.so and remove all instances of -lz  
in GDALMake.opt and ensure that GDAL is configured with an external  
zlib (so it doesn't use its own).  IIRC, I was able to get things to  
work with this messy hackery as well.

Sorry, I can't be of much help.  ESRI made the situation even better  
for 9.3.  They don't even ship the *nix SDE SDKs.  You have to ask for  
them to mail them to you :(
