I started looking at what it would take to convert zlib to build with c++. First off, it's not GPL. Are there any issues with modifying the code checked into the tree? Next, it uses automake, which seems to assume that a .c file should be compiled with CC, and not CXX. I get the impression we need to subvert automake to get this to happen. Any thoughts? Jerry
