Interfaces.C.Pointers also has the nasty problem that you must use
'Unchecked_Access instead of 'Access all the time, unless you
instantiate it in the same scope as your objects.
Also, as you are interfacing Zlib, you will be dealing with untyped
pointers all the time, so I think System.Address is really the way to go.
