Tom Lane 2efca16339 Don't rely on zlib's gzgetc() macro.
It emerges that zlib's configuration logic is not robust enough
to guarantee that the macro will have the same ideas about struct
field layout as the library itself does, leading to corruption of
zlib's state struct followed by unintelligible failure messages.
This hazard has existed for a long time, but we'd not noticed
for several reasons:

(1) We only use gzgetc() when trying to read a manually-compressed
TOC file within a directory-format dump, which is a rarely-used
scenario that we weren't even testing before 20ec99589.

(2) No corruption actually occurs unless sizeof(long) is different
from sizeof(off_t) and the platform is big-endian.

(3) Some platforms have already fixed the configuration instability,
at least sufficiently for their environments.

Despite (3), it seems foolish to assume that the problem isn't
going to be present in some environments for a long time to come.
Hence, avoid relying on this macro.  We can just #undef it and
fall back on the underlying function of the same name.
