 There are a couple problems with the installation of the new version of
 Zlib...

 1. It now installs a .pc file, but since libdir=/lib, it's installed in
 /lib/pkgconfig (thanks to Ratrophy on IRC for pointing this out).

 2. It still installs a static library, but with current installation
 instructions it's kept in /lib.

 One fix for #1 would be to add "pkgconfigdir=/usr/lib/pkgconfig" to the
 "make install" command. For #2, obviously /lib/libz.a would need to be
 moved to /usr/lib.

 However, I think it would be easiest to fix both issues just by removing
 the --libdir parameter from configure, then simply mv'ing
 /usr/lib/libz.so.* to /lib and recreating the /usr/lib/libz.so.

 Also since the static and shared libs are both built by a single
 configure/make, there are some small tweaks needed to the text.
