  Log:
  Add a tiny hunk to allow firefox to use our system libz instead of
  building its own. Some years ago there was a security problem with
  zlib-1.2.2 and firefox' configure checks the system's zlib.h to be
  1.2.3 or higher.

  FreeBSD patched the hole without bumping the version number, which
  caused Firefox (and, likely, other Mozilla stuff) to build their own
  versions instead (and install their headers).

  Maintainers were repeatedly notified -- most recently about a month
  ago: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.

  Approved by:    maintainer timeout

  Revision  Changes    Path
  1.3       +8 -1      ports/www/firefox/files/patch-configure


This should probably have been done somewhere in Makefile.common's
post-patch target so that all related port could also use system's zlib.
