The original sources use the bundled zlibs, however should already be unused
with our patches.
Right, ditto with many of the other bundles, which have been removed.

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*.
We should just remove all the GoAhead stuff from the tarball, can we just build
the 9.11 without GoAhead at all? switching to SVN is likely to be a major pain
at this stage.
