Hm...

The problem is, as I see that the test routines
cannot check if the zlib is compiled-in or not.
I usually build with --without-zlib for some weird
unimportant reasons.

I think that the code IS allright, as it allows the
fallback when no zlib is compiled in. But what is
if the zlib is compiled but not found on runtime?
Well, this should obviously result in process not
being able to start, right? Now, was your code compiled
with zlib support and the zlib library was not installed?

OTOH, if you do not explicitly disable the zlib support
then the build should fail. That is true.
