I have such a list generated from the packages found on
ftp2.freebsd.org.  I found approximately 774 binaries (some ports
including more than one executable or shared object, of course) that
referenced zlib in the packages.

I also searched the distfiles on ftp2.freebsd.org for applications that
included their own copy of zlib.  There are approximately 78 of those.

(The above numbers are from Feb 18.)

I did not count applications which statically link zlib.

I don't believe that we are affected, so the information did not turn
out to be very useful :-)

Cheers,
