The main changes since 0.9 are:
- don't assume that char is signed (problem on SGI)
- temporarily disable inline functions
- make deflate deterministic
- don't use signed char in inflate (not portable enough)
- fix inflate memory leak for segmented architectures
- Default MEM_LEVEL is 8 (not 9 for Unix) as documented in zlib.h
- Document the memory requirements in zconf.h
- added "make install"
