Hi developpers,
I've been building qemu more than a dozen times until now, and I've always been annoyed by the lack for a check for zlib during the configure stage. It's not a great patch but it'll avoid the build process to fail when zlib.h is not present.

If you use it, please tell me! :-)

Cheers,
Sebastien Alaiwan
