  This sounds to me like your Compress::Zlib installation somehow got
partially - but not completely - uninstalled.  Specifically the error
above (under t/08encoding.t) seems to be saying that the XS portion of
the code is missing.  CPAN is seeing it as installed "enough" that it
doesn't try to reinstall it, but when it tries to run it as a test it
fails.

  Try

  cpan> install Compress::Zlib

  with the "force" option (which I don't remember the syntax for at the
moment.)
