If you don't want to load up another Windows compiler, you could always
cross-compile a different zlib app.  zlib itself comes with minigzip;
does that work?  That would be the obvious first test.  UnZip can also
be compiled to use zlib, and I think there are third-party zip/unzip
apps also built around zlib.
