Martin,
Forgot to mentioned in last email, the original zlib.h actually has
crc32 declared using uLong, so
we have a compiling error on 64-bit after we define the uLong to 32-bit
unsigned, since the unsigned
long is 64-bit in crc32.c.

Perhaps use of "unsigned long" in crc32.c is correct because
in these cases either a 32-bit or 64-bit type will do?
Did you actually encounter functional problems with the original code?
pack code at src/share/native/com/sun/java/util/jar/pack/zip.cpp
expects the crc32() returns
a "uint", it actually matches the uLong. So there is a compiling err
on 64-bit platform if we keep
crc32 un-touched. Sure, its possible to solve this problem by changing
the pack code...first I
would like to avid to touch pack code if possible, second asI said
above, crc32 is a unsigned
32-bit, it seems right to simply use the unsigned 32-bit.
