+ Building zlib-1.2.11 as part of the TL tree
+ ==========================================
+
+This directory libs/zlib/ uses a proxy Makefile.am to build the zlib library
+'libz' from the unmodified(*) source tree in libs/zlib/zlib-src/, bypassing
+the original build system.
+
+As far as applicable, the tests in libs/zlib/zlib-src/configure have been
+translated into equivalent test in libs/zlib/configure.ac.
+
+-----------------------------
+
+(*) almost unmodified, the file zconf.h has been removed!
+
+=============================
