Well, I normally would agree with you if it was a "oh, all our zlib objects seem to start with 0x78" thing, but after having dug into both the zlib standard (which is actually an RFC, not just some random thing), and looked at the sources, it's definitely the case that the "0x78" byte isn't just an implementation detail.
It's actually really part of the specs, and not just happenstance.

That would work, but on the other hand, one of the advantages of doing the new format would be that the "check size and type" code wouldn't even need to call into the zlib code.
Anyway, I think this following patch replaces the old 2/3 and 3/3 (it still depends on the original [1/3] cleanup.
(It also renames and reverses the meaning of the config file option: it's now "[core] LegacyHeaders = true" for using legacy headers.)
Not heavily tested, but seems ok.
sf? Dscho? Can you check this thing out?
