bsnes and static libraries

[Julian Sikorski]

Hi,

as you might already know, I submitted bsnes for review a while ago [1]. 
One of the issues pointed out is that it uses its own copies of system 
libs - ntsc filter, zip and jma, possibly others. I did contact the 
author a while ago (regarding zip), and he said that local zip copy is 
needed for windows. I guess he does not really care.
On the other hand, I think that if the usage of system-wide libs could 
be conditionalised in an easy and transparent way, he would not mind a 
patch. I can't prepare it myself (I cannot code), but if someone 
prepares such patch, I am willing to push it upstream - otherwise we 
cannot use it since the license is quite restrictive. We can as well 
ignore the problem and leave the situation as is. What do you think?
