I suspect that both could have been made to use NULL instead to indicate 
that no pointer exists.

As long as none of the following does not dereference the NULL
pointer that should work fine:

	- memchr(NULL, ch, 0);

        - memcmp(NULL, ptr, 0);

        - stream.next_in = NULL;
          stream.avail_in = 0;
          deflate(&stream, Z_FINISH);
