 A Massively Spiffy Yet Delicately Unobtrusive Compression Library

Unless I have missed something, this library is already in the base FreeBSD system and has been there for several years. What is the point in having it
in the ports tree as well?

I needed zlib for a project I am working on and I checked to see if it was in ports but didn't
bother to check if it was in base.

Since zlib hasen't seen an update in 4 years, it doesn't make sense to maintain a port of it
so it has been removed.

Thanks for catching that.
