That's just me, I talk in slang! (or perl pretty often)
The Precompiled package from http://cygutils.netpedia.net had a pacth
applied to the orginal (Vanilla) source for Zlib that enabled the creation
of a .dll.
Running the normal:
./configure
make
make install
produced a static library libz.a.
This I have had no problem linking into other programs (or libs).
