Subject: [ruby-core:23513] [Feature #1498] rubygems tests fail on zlib dependency if you compile ruby without zlib headers

Feature #1498: rubygems tests fail on zlib dependency if you compile ruby without zlib headers
http://redmine.ruby-lang.org/issues/show/1498

Author: Roger Pack
Status: Open, Priority: Normal
Target version: 1.9.2

Currently if you don't have zlib headers installed and you run the tests, it yields:

...
C:/dev/ruby/downloads/ruby_trunk/test/rubygems/test_gem_spec_fetcher.rb: no such file to load -- zlib
repeat many times
...

I'd suggest that core fallback on a pure ruby zlib if a C one isn't installed.

zliby , http://blade.nagaokaut.ac.jp/cgi-bin/scat.rb/ruby/ruby-talk/324563

of course, there's no pure ruby openssl so I'm not sure if this would actually be enough to allow rubygems tests to run, but it would still in general be nice.

Thanks!
