Michael Stone points out that there doesn't seem to be an attack vector
for this; aide only uses zlib for creating and opening its own database,
and if a user is able to modify that then they've already compromised
the system.

I'm willing to listen to persuasive arguments in favor of an update,
though, so I'll leave this bug open for a little longer.
