Ok, glad system zlib is being used.

I still think getting rid of native zlib usage (system or otherwise) is a good
idea. (Thus "enhancement" severity.) I'll clarify the summary.

It's also a good idea to not trust C code for jpeg and png decoding, and
basically anything else that has to read untrusted datastreams. (But that's a
story for other bugs.)
