New submission from Jim Carroll:

We were looking to squeak maximum performance out of zlib.compress. We noticed 
in py3k, zlib.compress already accepts Py_buffer’s, but in 2.x, compress 
required strings.  

We’ve modified the compress (and decompress for orthogonal completeness), see 
the attached patch.
