Okay. I think we'll just state that we require zlib 1.0.4 or newer;
since that's pretty far back, it doesn't bother me a lot to do so.
(Current zlib release is 1.1.3, last I looked.)

I suppose we could add an AC_EGREP_HEADER test to see if <zlib.h>
defines z_streamp or not; is that worth the trouble?
