Tom Lane 40dc710a61 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.

PostgreSQL Database Management System
=====================================

This directory contains the source code distribution of the PostgreSQL
database management system.

PostgreSQL is an advanced object-relational database management system
that supports an extended subset of the SQL standard, including
transactions, foreign keys, subqueries, triggers, user-defined types
and functions.  This distribution also contains C language bindings.

PostgreSQL has many language interfaces, many of which are listed here:

	https://www.postgresql.org/download/

See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install
PostgreSQL.  That file also lists supported operating systems and
hardware platforms and contains information regarding any other
software packages that are required to build or run the PostgreSQL
system.  Copyright and license information can be found in the
file COPYRIGHT.  A comprehensive documentation set is included in this
distribution; it can be read as described in the installation
instructions.

The latest version of this software may be obtained at
https://www.postgresql.org/download/.  For more information look at our
web site located at https://www.postgresql.org/.
