[ECOS] No zlib crc32 support?

Hello all,

I'm working on a little project to perform validation of a data set, and planned to use zlib's crc32
call to validate the data.  Much to my surprise, I found that eCos does not support the crc32
call--apparently, on purpose.

Would someone be so kind as to explain why this is the case?  I know I can use Adler32 as it's
supported, but I'm just wondering why crc32 isn't supported.

Thanks,

Steve Strublic
