        J2SE uses zlib 1.1.3 with some local fixes applied. Version 1.2.2 should
        be used instead because:
        - some performance improvements
        - security fixes. These have been independently applied to 1.1.3
          by Sun engineers, but there is the
          *perception* that Sun may be using an insecure version even though there is
          no evidence of a security problem.
        The upgrade would be perfect for the post-Tiger release, when 1.2.1 will have
        seen real-world use by others. Users should not see any difference except
        for the performance improvements
