[gdal-dev] inflateCopy required?

[Even Rouault]

After a bit of googling, I see that

You probably must link against zlib < 1.2.X
The question now is : should we support zlib < 1.2.X and workaround the 
missing symbol ? I could test ZLIB_VERNUM. 
InflateCopy is used to make seeking faster in zlib compressed streams. Thus It 
is not strictly necessary and could be workaround, but I'm wondering if we 
want to support zlib < 1.2.X
