I'm checking in a change to

	1) declare and define "file_seek()" to return a "long" if libz
	   is present;

	2) define it only as a macro that expands to "ftell" - along the
	   lines of what Itojun did for "file_tell()" - if libz isn't
	   present.

I've attached the patch that does that; it seems to work if I explicitly
disable zlib support here, but you might want to check whether it works
- if it doesn't, don't reply to "gharris@xxxxxxxxxxxx", reply either to
the list or to "guy@xxxxxxxxxxxx", as, by the time the mail arrives, I
may be at work, and the latter address goes both to work and home but
the former one goes only to home.
