Hello,
Yikes!!
Erol - Can you include the older zlib 1.2.3 libraries (32/64-bit ones) in the
newer 'library/[email protected],5.11-0.151.1.8.1:20130715T155558Z' package in
/hipster for backward compatibility with legacy apps?

Alex,
I bumped zlib this week so I have a bit of history here. All symbols from 1.2.3
versions have SUNW_1.2 label and newer are labeled with 1.3.
The 64bit calls were introduced after 1.2.3 and now carry 1.3 label, have a
look at mapfile in zlib directory.
Cheers,
Erol
