Hi,

Just a heads-up that zlib in base system (libz) has been updated to
1.2.4.  We tried to keep -HEAD as close as possible to the vendor
version, but there is some changes in its internal data structure, and
we did not use versioned symbols in the past, making shared library
version bump unavoidable.

A MFC of this update is planned, but we will have to make some rather
aggressive changes against the library and more testing.

Please make sure that you have at least libxml2-2.7.6_2 in your ports
tree before even thinking about updating your ports tree.  Older libxml2
uses some knowledge of zlib internals that has been changed in this
update which is known to cause problem.
