Thanks for the directions Allin, I did not link zlib while compiling. I 
recompiled it with zlib linked this but that did not help!

Fortunately I got another nudge in the right direction at 
[GitHub](https://github.com/Alexpux/MINGW-packages/issues/3794#issuecomment-392080336)
 where I found out that there was a rouge zlib DLL in my %PATH% from Intel... 
My application worked perfect after I removed it from path, it even works 
without linking zlib now. Not sure how it works but it does work now.

Thanks for the help! :)
