            Summary: update Phobo's zlib from 1.2.1 to 1.2.3


This certainly illustrates why it would have been useless to translate 
zlib from C to D.

Why does the zlib library have to be in Phobos ?
(the C code that is, not the D wrapper itself...)

Had it linked to the external library, it would
have been updated already last year when reported.

The D 'header' module still might need to be updated, so it's not an 
automatic process.  Fortunately, the zlib header is easy to convert. 
The easiest way is to diff the new zlib.h against the old one and make 
the changes to zlib.d manually.  If I have time, I'll see about doing it.

I'm pretty sure that I updated both last year, and sent them...

Even put it back into "etc.c.zlib" just to make Walter happy. :-)

Was there API changes too ? I was under the impression
it was mostly a security update, i.e. no real D changes.

i.e. as I remember it, there were only some new functions
so it would have been cool to link D's 1.2.1 to C's 1.2.3

I have no idea.  I just always check headers for upgrades, just in case.
