It has its own section. If there is no mention of zlib, it is not compiled
in. My configure line shows --with-zlib, so chances are it is not compiled
in by default. You may not have to recompile PHP if you can figure out where
and how PHP compiles zlib support, and compile just that piece as an .so,
then load it in the php.ini. But sounds to me like much more work than just
recompiling.
