Vincent,

Which asm code should we do that for?  There are several (about seven?) in the contrib directory.

If I make it built-in to make, then it effectively becomes part of the base zlib, not a contribution.  Have others tested the assembler code extensively enough to know it doesn't have any bugs?

I do not object to it, if we believe that the assembler code is as reliable as the C code it's replacing.
