Yes.  It appears that Mr. Steeman may have had an older version of Zlib
on his system as well, as the configure script found "gzopen()" both
before and after he installed a newer Zlib, but "gzseek()" and some
other routines ("gztell()", "gzgets()", "zError()") were missing before
but not after.

I'll check in a change to check for all those routines, and to include
compressed-file-reading support only if they're all there.
