You don't have the following at the beginning of your .c file:
#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
#include "config.h"
#endif

I assume without that, HAVE_LIBZ (and a bunch of other stuff) isn't defined 
when your .c file includes the remaining header files, and it's doomed.

It is strange.  file_gets() is typically #define as gzgets() when
compiled with zlib.  The return of gzgets() is the same as fgets()
(which is used when zlib isn't present) - a char *.  I noticed that
you're using an unsigned char (guchar), but a test program I made
outside of Wireshark works fine with that too.  Want to send a patch of
your changes so we can try it also?
