Therefore, it does it incorrectly.
I've encountered real errors doing build
with
./Configure mingw shared zlib --cross-compile-prefix=i586-mingw32msvc-
mkdef.pl does
if ($_ eq "zlib" || $_ eq "zlib-dynamic"
|| $_ eq "enable-zlib-dynamic")
but in this case OPTIONS contain "enable-zlib no-zlib-dynamic"
