Frankly, we do not build zlib yet but resort to a binary distribution:

  # Gnuwin32 packages orginally hosted at sf.net but mirrored at g10code
  # for easier download.
  server ftp://ftp.g10code.com/mirrors/gnuwin32
  
  file zlib-1.2.3-bin.zip
  chk  becbcaf5076e307e743b1edc6a5645849eba9ebc
  file zlib-1.2.3-lib.zip
  chk  fe2ee77293da3361b1f2710d1bd62f27b2ae64b0
  file zlib-1.2.3-src.zip
  chk  0e18fcd7f1a585f825c210a1bb2456b4aa8fcc0d

Yes, we should actually be able to build it ourself but due to time
constraints we have never looked into it.  It won't be a major
challenge; just a bit of Makefile trickery.


Salam-Shalom,
