What build system is used by z/OS? Because for builds using configure/make, it's no different from some existing modules which already require lua, distcache, serf, some ldap lib, some unreleased apr-util version with apr_crypt, etc. It simply does not hurt if the a lib is unavailable, except that the depending modules cannot be built.
