Hi Andreas,

thinking about the direction of this patchset, I came to this idea:

How about ditching zlib altogether for this and replace it with some 
compact compression code right away?

Something like these might be suitable:

https://github.com/ariya/FastLZ/blob/master/fastlz.c
https://github.com/richgel999/miniz/blob/master/miniz.c
(licenses should be compatible for including the code)


This would solve both problems:

- zlib detection during build
- zlib being unavailable at runtime when linked dynamically


How do you think about this?

I think it wouldn't matter when the compression is slightly less effective..

Best regards
sw
