Doing
$ find . -name 'zlib.c'
on the Linux 2.4.18 source reveals the three zlibs
./fs/jffs2/zlib.c
./drivers/net/zlib.c
./arch/ppc/boot/lib/zlib.c
Further checking reveals that ./arch/ppc/boot/lib/zlib.c is based on
zlib-0.95, while the other two are zlib-1.0.4.
Which one should I use? Shouldn't they be merged? And what about the
double-free() bug?

There is progress going on to merge them (see 2.4.19-ac) so hopefully RSN
that question won't be worth asking.

All of them that can be anyhow. I'm hoping no one will touch
arch/ppc/boot/lib/zlib.c :)
