Sure no problem. Without this patch, on (our) s390x build (only):

[  443s] gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I./lib  -I./lib    -O2 -Wall

[  443s] dfltcc.c: In function 'dfltcc_inflate':
[  443s] dfltcc.c:441:15: error: 'errno' undeclared (first use in this
function)

[  443s]       |               ^~~~~
[  443s] dfltcc.c:28:1: note: 'errno' is defined in header '<errno.h>';
this is probably fixable by adding '#include <errno.h>'

I did not dive into the why because the fix seems obvious. Looks like
this fixes: 23ddd95

Hmm, this is literally off your master at a6924a2a2, v.1.14 + 1. I put
60f9518 into the errno branch at
https://github.com/andreasstieger/gzip/compare/master...errno
