It has been reported that 1.2.13 as well as the patch from LP#1990379 breaks libxml2 (and libxml) on s390x:
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2155328). The attached patch should fix the issue.

The upstream author proposed a fix and a new test for zlib-ng (https://github.com/zlib-ng/zlib-ng/pull/1390) in order to detect such breakages in the future.

This was initially reported as part of LP#1990379,
especially: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/zlib/+bug/1990379/comments/12
but needs a separate LP bug (number) - this one.

The proposed patch at https://launchpadlibrarian.net/641454325/patch-1.2.11
needed some tweaks regarding white-spaces, but then applied fine on focal, jammy, kinetic and also 1.2.13, which is what we currently have in lunar-proposed.
