Florian Weimer <weimer () cert uni-stuttgart de> has written find-zlib
http://cert.uni-stuttgart.de/files/fw/find-zlib
which will do a much better job of finding applications using zlib.

A partial list of such applications is given in
http://www.gzip.org/zlib/apps.html
Thanks to Roman Drahtmueller <draht () suse de> for contributing most of
this list.
