Comment(by glynn):

 Replying to [ticket:2349 neteler]:

 > Proposal: make ZLIB, level 3 the standard compression.

 r61380 implements the following behaviour:

  * zlib compression is the default. Set GRASS_INT_ZLIB=0 to use RLE
 compression.

  * The compression level can be set via GRASS_ZLIB_LEVEL, whose value
 should be an integer between 0 and 9. If not set (or if the value cannot
 be parsed as an integer), zlib's default compression level will be used
 (lib/gis/flate.c:333, if a different default is preferred).
