[gs-devel] A bug in build gs with use of shared zlib

[Ralph Giles]

Thanks for the patch. Adding -lz to the OBJ line is a bit of a hack 
though. I'll try to think of something better. In the meantime, can
you just configure with --disable-compile-inits? That makes more sense
in a normal *nix package anyway.
