Comment (by rwbarton):

 Well the error from zlib is not that scary either: it just means that the
 zlib API is being used incorrectly. Given that

 - there is no strong evidence of a compiler bug here
 - the zlib source is largely incomprehensible

 I suggest you submit a bug report to the zlib package also.
