Please also be reminded that the kernel (and bootblock) libz should now be kept sycronized with the userland version. Update one, update the other. Let's not re-create that mess we had again. That one is more size sensitive, especially for the bootblocks. It has to be tested rather well. Yes, it is a bit of a pain.
