Once someone gets around to building C::Zlib away from the core we can
revisit this.
Okay, you asked for it:
$ uname -a
OpenVMS SPE180 0 V8.2 AlphaServer_DS20_500_MHz Alpha
$ perl -le "print qq/This is perl $]/"
This is perl 5.008006
$ set def [.COMPRESS-ZLIB-1_35]
$ defi/trans=conc p5mroot USER1:[ABELTJE.PERLMODULES.COMPRESS-ZLIB-1_35.]
%DCL-I-SUPERSEDE, previous value of P5MROOT has been superseded
$ set def p5mroot:[000000]

It looks like your CPAN version still has the old Zlib-src directory:
$ dir
