Description

I built lighttpd successfully on a box that didn't have the libz development package installed (zlib1g-dev on Debian Sarge), but when I went to use mod_compress it didn't compress anything, only displaying "Vary: Content-Encoding" but letting through uncompressed output.

The configure script should error out when building mod_compress if libz could not be found at build time. Additionally, mod_compress should issue a warning/error if libz cannot be found a run time.
