Would there be any objection to including it (meaning the 'official' zlib version of crc32) in the
zlib package anyhow? In my case (and I would think many others), it makes what I'm doing completely
portable between Linux and eCos without having to ifdef for eCos.

Actually, I think it's just not duplicated in the ZLIB package.
CRC32 is available in the CRC package.
