Comment:

 Mike,
 when I grep 'cp' in the Makefile you posted, I see:

 {{{
 drkir...@hawk:~$ grep cp zlib-cygwin-Makefile
 #    cp contrib/asm?86/match.S ./match.S
         cp $(STATICLIB) $(DESTDIR)$(libdir)
         cp $(SHAREDLIBV) $(DESTDIR)$(sharedlibdir)
         cp zlib.3 $(DESTDIR)$(man3dir)
         cp zlib.pc $(DESTDIR)$(pkgconfigdir)
         cp zlib.h zconf.h $(DESTDIR)$(includedir)
         cp -p zconf.h.in zconf.h
 }}}


 When I do a recursive grep of 'DESTDIR' in the package, I find there is no
 such text anywhere in the package. So it looks to me like DESTDIR is being
 passed to the configure script - it's not a variable used in the original
 source code of zlib, or in spkg-install. Note even 'DEST' is used in
 either spkg-install or the zlib source code.

 It seems '''very''' strange I must admit.
