Summary: zlib module documentation wrong version

Initial Comment:
The documentation of the zlib module is a little bit
out of date:

Version 1.1.3 is the most recent version as of
September 2000.

This is wrong, the most recent version of zlib is:
1.2.1

Change it to:

Version 1.2.1 is the most recent version as of October
2004.

source:
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/module-zlib.html

I hope python 2.4 Release will use this version.
(it is out since end 2003)

Fixed in the text for both 2.4 and 2.3-maint; thanks for
pointing this out.

Note that on Unix platforms, Python will be compiled to use
whatever version of zlib is on the system; it doesn't
include its own copy.

I think the Windows binary version of 2.3.4 used zlib1.1.4;
I don't know what the binary of 2.4 uses.
