Not a problem. This patch was just a result of a quick s/PRESET_DICT/0x20/p -  
I'll change the patch so there is a localized PRESET_DICT macro. 

I've attached an updated patch that does just that.

(Mark Adler suggested a second, more involved patch that would put the burdon 
of all the checking that JFFS2 is doing where it belongs, and already is done 
actually, zlib's inflate() )
