Seems I'm just howling at the moon here. However, if the win32 source code
build is specifically for mingw/msys and zlib installs on msys into a
directory that isn't looked for by default by the PostgreSQL configure, then
I'd expect a lot of "problem" e-mails from users who complain about zlib
during installation. A simple fix (liking adding those directories to
PostgreSQL configure) could be done to prevent a little headache in the
future.
