I like this idea.  But:

Right.

Looks good.

On error, previously *pptr and size would reflect a truncated result,
but now *pptr is NULL and size is 0.  Both results are silly.

It would be nicer if the caller (or do_compress itself) could check
for errors and report them.

Likewise.

As Shawn mentioned, this requests gzip encoding with the default
window size.

The zlib error codes are very helpful for debugging, so I would be sad
to see them go.
