The original sources use the bundled zlibs, however should already be unused
with our patches.

This likely doesn't help us. The licening xbmc ships with its GoAhead sources 
* puts us under a legal risk of being sued by GoAhead, because we are patching
GoAhead.
* Very likely invalidates xbmc's licensing, i.e. xbmc's sources very likely are
*NOT GPL'ed*.
