Build with zlib.
Pre-compiled zlib provided at http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/win32/zlib-1.1.3-fixed.zip "fixed" because the pre-compiled version in the "extralibs" package from the Gimp/Win32 page has a fault zlib.lib in it. Add note about zlib in README.win32; more work needs to be done to this file to mention new packaging method. svn path=/trunk/; revision=3263
