 SHORTTERM
-- single-file documentation (a docbook?)
 - handle international filenames more gracefully (unicode API?)
 - most is multithreaded ... but zzip_dir_open (Thorsten Schöning)
 - rboerdijk@ does also report errors on overlapping reads, another
    one pointed to the usage of seek_set that may cause the problems
-- extend aligned-access check in the autoconf macro such that it can
-  cover the cross-compiling case - libpcap AC_LBL_UNALIGNED_ACCESS
-  uses         alpha*|arm*|bfin*|hp*|mips*|sh*|sparc*|ia64|nv1)
-                ac_cv_lbl_unaligned_fail=yes
-  for that.
