-Compatibility notes
-===================
-
-- Although the name "zlib" would have been more normal for the
-  zlibpas unit, this name is already taken by Borland's ZLib unit.
-  This is somehow unfortunate, because that unit is not a genuine
-  interface to the full-fledged zlib functionality, but a suite of
-  class wrappers around zlib streams.  Other essential features,
-  such as checksums, are missing.
-  It would have been more appropriate for that unit to have a name
-  like "ZStreams", or something similar.
-
-- The C and zlib-supplied types int, uInt, long, uLong, etc. are
-  translated directly into Pascal types of similar sizes (Integer,
-  LongInt, etc.), to avoid namespace pollution.  In particular,
-  there is no conversion of unsigned int into a Pascal unsigned
-  integer.  The Word type is non-portable and has the same size
-  (16 bits) both in a 16-bit and in a 32-bit environment, unlike
-  Integer.  Even if there is a 32-bit Cardinal type, there is no
-  real need for unsigned int in zlib under a 32-bit environment.
-
-- Except for the callbacks, the zlib function interfaces are
-  assuming the calling convention normally used in Pascal
-  (__pascal for DOS and Windows16, __fastcall for Windows32).
-  Since the cdecl keyword is used, the old Turbo Pascal does
-  not work with this interface.
-
-- The gz* function interfaces are not translated, to avoid
-  interfacing problems with the C runtime library.  Besides,
-    gzprintf(gzFile file, const char *format, ...)
-  cannot be translated into Pascal.
