Norman, you missed the point...

  If we change the name of libz.dll to 'cyglibz.dll' or somesuch, then
it would *not* be in pub/cygwin/contrib/zlib/.  Chris is pointing out
that this would confuse people (*), and the answer is 
  'The name was changed. The file is cyglibz.dll (or whatever)'
not
  go download the package again from ftp://.....

--Chuck

(*) the people that never read documentation...
