-Changes in 1.0.5 (3 Jan 98)
-- Fix inflate to terminate gracefully when fed corrupted or invalid data
-- Use const for rommable constants in inflate
-- Eliminate memory leaks on error conditions in inflate
-- Removed some vestigial code in inflate
-- Update web address in README
-
-Changes in 1.0.4 (24 Jul 96)
-- In very rare conditions, deflate(s, Z_FINISH) could fail to produce an EOF
-  bit, so the decompressor could decompress all the correct data but went
-  on to attempt decompressing extra garbage data. This affected minigzip too.
-- zlibVersion and gzerror return const char* (needed for DLL)
-- port to RISCOS (no fdopen, no multiple dots, no unlink, no fileno)

-
-Changes in 1.0.3 (2 Jul 96)
-- use z_streamp instead of z_stream *, which is now a far pointer in MSDOS
-  small and medium models; this makes the library incompatible with previous
-  versions for these models. (No effect in large model or on other systems.)
-- return OK instead of BUF_ERROR if previous deflate call returned with
-  avail_out as zero but there is nothing to do
-- added memcmp for non STDC compilers
-- define NO_DUMMY_DECL for more Mac compilers (.h files merged incorrectly)
-- define __32BIT__ if __386__ or i386 is defined (pb. with Watcom and SCO)
-- better check for 16-bit mode MSC (avoids problem with Symantec)
-
-Changes in 1.0.2 (23 May 96)
-- added Windows DLL support

-- updated Makefile.dj2
-- added algorithm.doc
-
-Changes in 1.0.1 (20 May 96) [1.0 skipped to avoid confusion]

-  Watcom (Makefile.wat), Amiga SAS/C (Makefile.sas)
-- speed up adler32 for modern machines without auto-increment
-- added -ansi for IRIX in configure

-- fix configure for QNX
-- add configure branch for SCO and HPUX
-- avoid many warnings (unused variables, dead assignments, etc...)
-- no fdopen for BeOS
-- fix the Watcom fix for 32 bit mode (define FAR as empty)
-- removed redefinition of Byte for MKWERKS
-- work around an MWKERKS bug (incorrect merge of all .h files)
-
-Changes in 0.99 (27 Jan 96)

-- deflateInit and inflateInit are now macros to allow version checking
-- prefix all global functions and types with z_ with -DZ_PREFIX
-- make falloc completely reentrant (inftrees.c)
-- fixed very unlikely race condition in ct_static_init
-- free in reverse order of allocation to help memory manager
-- use zlib-1.0/* instead of zlib/* inside the tar.gz
-- make zlib warning-free with "gcc -O3 -Wall -Wwrite-strings -Wpointer-arith
-  -Wconversion -Wstrict-prototypes -Wmissing-prototypes"
-- allow gzread on concatenated .gz files
-- deflateEnd now returns Z_DATA_ERROR if it was premature

-- use Z_BINARY instead of BINARY
-- document that gzclose after gzdopen will close the file
-- allow "a" as mode in gzopen.
-- fix error checking in gzread
-- allow skipping .gz extra-field on pipes
-- added reference to Perl interface in README
-- put the crc table in FAR data (I dislike more and more the medium model :)
-- added get_crc_table
-- added a dimension to all arrays (Borland C can't count).
-- workaround Borland C bug in declaration of inflate_codes_new & inflate_fast
-- guard against multiple inclusion of *.h (for precompiled header on Mac)
-- Watcom C pretends to be Microsoft C small model even in 32 bit mode.
-- don't use unsized arrays to avoid silly warnings by Visual C++:
-     warning C4746: 'inflate_mask' : unsized array treated as  '__far'
-     (what's wrong with far data in far model?).
-- define enum out of inflate_blocks_state to allow compilation with C++
-

-  not completely flushed in rare occasions).
-- default window size is same for compression and decompression
-  (it's now sufficient to set MAX_WBITS in zconf.h).

-  typedefs and because voidnp was not near in large model).

-- faster crc32()
-
-Changes in 0.8 (29 April 95)

-  (actually that was not a compiler bug, see 0.81 above)
-- gzread no longer reads one extra byte in certain cases
-- In gzio destroy(), don't reference a freed structure
-- avoid many warnings for MSDOS

-
-Changes in 0.7 (14 April 95)
-- Added full inflate support.
-- Simplified the crc32() interface. The pre- and post-conditioning
