Note: there is a very obvious workaround which consists in buffering the input stream manually.

that's a hack, not a workaround.

nsJARInputStream works on a memory buffer already, see how the :Read method is implemented. This would have to be careful with SEH exceptions
If my understanding of that code is correct, Read() uses a memory buffer only in MODE_COPY, i.e. only if the file is STORED rather than DEFLATED. I'm not sure it's a very common case.

More generally, the definition of buffered for IOUtils is whether we can call https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/XPCOM_Interface_Reference/nsIInputStream#readSegments – which is obviously not the case with nsIJARInputStream.
it's not a common case. Would be good to keep all gzipping off main thread :)...So buffered stream doesnt really help
Trivial patch to avoid the crash. Returning NS_ERROR_NOT_IMPLEMENTED, as per .idl specifications, should be sufficient.

Now, I guess I could implement the method if the entry is simply STORED, rather than DEFLATED. Is there any interest in this?

No, buffered stream most likely doesn't do anything useful, except avoiding the crash.

Don't crash if we attempt to check whether nsIJARInputStream is buffered

This seems fine

There is no point in implementing readsegments for uncompressed zips only

I read the bug, but it's not clear to me what the situation is where we are actually calling ReadSegments but shouldn't crash. Have you got a stack which explains this?
NetUtil.asyncCopy calls immediately nsIOUtil::InputStreamIsBuffered to determine whether the input stream is buffered. The rest of the stack is in comment 0: InputStreamIsBuffered determines whether an input stream is buffered by calling ReadSegments, which in the case of nsJARInputStream calls MOZ_CRASH.
