What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Linux, but the issue is specific to zlib 1.2.5.2 and higher, however this patch 
should be compatible with older versions too

Please provide any additional information below.

We have been using this patch for stardict within Gentoo for 2 years about now, 
succesfully
