Where is zlib going to be in the tree? The Cygwin installer uses zlib,
too, so it would be nice if it was at the same level as libiberty. Then
we can nuke this library from the cygwin repository if/when the
binutils/gdb/cygwin/newlib and gcc repositories are merged. Or, maybe we can
mirror zlib on b/g/c/n similarly to libiberty.
