Looks like a bug in the makefile -- when un-tarring zlib, it should be
'tar xvfz' not 'tar xvfj'. I was recently tinkering with bz bs gz
files and looks like the flags got out of whack. I've patched this in
svn so you can 'svn up' and try again.

You could hack through make.osx to find your own libs. We do it this
way to build distributable binaries where we can't count on targets
having the right png/freetype on their os x systems. distutils is
limited as a configure system so it is difficult to hack this kind of
stuff into setup.py. Not that what we are doing is ideal, but we have
been striving for "works" over "perfect". The former is hard enough
on OS X. Any improvements you can make to make this more general are
of course welcome.
