Windows and zlib 1.2.2

Is zlib 1.2.2 a new requirement now?  I upgraded it and can build 
Subversion fine, but can't build Apache -- mod_deflate is directly using 
.c files that are no longer in zlib 1.2.2, it appears.

If I downgrade to zlib 1.1.4 then Apache builds but Subversion doesn't 
because it is depending on a makefile that comes with 1.2.2.

How are others building?  Separate installs of zlib?  1.1.4 for Apache 
and 1.2.2 for Subversion?

Also, if I try to gen-make.py without zlib at all I still get a zlib 
project that fails to build.

I have no problem moving requirements up to zlib 1.2.2, I'm just trying 
to get a handle on new dependencies, etc.

Not at all. What mod_deflate uses is quite irrelevant to Subversion.

Hmmm... Does that mean that Apache 2.0.54 must be built with zlib
1.2.X just to be able to use the Windows binary mod_dav_svn.so of
Subversion 1.2.0? (the one in the svn-win32-1.2.0.zip, I mean)

Could you please make that patch available somewhere?

Thanks,

No problem, and thanks for the info and build enhancements.

1.2.x, but yes.

Actually, I fix up the the Apache build scripts for mod_deflate. I plan
to submit a patch to Apache to use zlib-1.2.x on Windows. 1.1.x is very
old. and several security bugs have been fixed since then.

Yes, you'll always get a zlib project, but if you don't tell gen_make.py
--with-zlib, that project won't build by default (it won't be a
dependency of neon).

Yah, sorry about the Apache weirdness... but as a bonus, you don't have
to build by hand zlib any more (*and* you can create a _real_ debug
build without warnings about CRT mismatches :)
