I compile my own zlib 1.2.8 on AIX as it's a dependancy for building my
own openssh
Just like Python 2.x is a dependancy of Samba4, if you're able to build
Samba4 yourself, I believe some dependancy like zlib and Python can be
built/maintained on a manual basis.
Until we're required to pre-build tons of dependancy, I don't see this as
a stopper for me.
