History argues against you, Andy. When zlib security vulnerabilites were
discovered, if often took several months for embedded zlib code to be
updated requiring people to write scripts to sniff out vulnerable
software [1]. Not a good situation to be in. If zlib is found vulnerable
now, we just rebuild it and restart any programs that link to it.

Fair enough, that make sense to me. Andy
