-I would do it if zconf.h were included using #include<> rather than
#include"". Would that be possible?

The configure script could also copy zlib.h to the build directory, if you
don't mind two identical copies of the file in a non-srcdir build.

The patch doesn't touch this file; my suggestion to delete it is all there
is.
