Richard, thanks for testing. BTW: Instead of your steps 1-3, you can directly download the branch with
bzr branch lp:~marcelstimberg/ubuntu/lucid/gzip/gzip-fix-524366

I do not think zlib is affected, though. I had a quick glance at the
code and it does not seem to use memcpy from libc6 but an unoptimized
zmemcpy function. The problem in gzip only surfaced because
optimziations in libc6 made use of the two memory ranges not overlapping
which gzip did not properly check for.
