 Yes, zlib is still built in 3.3-20030508 even when configured with 
 --with-system-zlib.

 Hello,
 
 would it be possible for you to check if this problem is still present  
 on the gcc 3.3 branch or mainline? Thanks,
 
 Dara

>Description:
The bootstrap process builds libz even when --with-system-zlib is specified at configure time.  The libz built by the bootstrap process is never used.

Ideally, configure would verify whether or not libz is installed and usable when --with-system-zlib is used (or even when it is not used), and would suppress its being built if so.
>How-To-Repeat:
sh ../gcc-3.1/configure --with-system-zlib
make
>Fix:
Add logic to top-level configure.in.
