  The code you hid was usable for Japanese text (and that code seemed to be a
nasty hack too).
  Undefining USE_ZLIB disallows you to read compressed html files
on the fly (not very useful for Windows users, IMO).

  SRC/chartrans should be "made" first. After you've made headers there, there
is no particular order necessary.

  It's zlib's header. Seems you've got precompiled (incorrectly) library for
BC, rather than compiled your own.
