There is a bunch of problems when compiling on a 32 bit system.
size_t is 32 bit, but off_t is 64.
===================
Some fixes which improve things, (but Windows in the 64 bit version
has both size_t and off_t 64 bit, so this is a problem for a 32 bit system.
The real "show stopper" is at the end.

==========================
And it seams as if zlib is the limitation here.
Unless we include the zlib source code into Git and redefine uLong,
is there a nice way around this:
===========================


/usr/include/zconf.h:#  define uLong                 z_uLong
/usr/include/zconf.h:#  define uLongf                z_uLongf
/usr/include/zconf.h:typedef unsigned long  uLong; /* 32 bits or more */
/usr/include/zconf.h:typedef uLong FAR uLongf;
