-anil For Mirage, we need to extract out the C functions (mainly for SHA) separately from the zlib bindings, and port the ones we want in mirage-platform/xen/runtime. I would drop the zlib bindings until we get a chance to implement them in OCaml (about a day's work). It's also not essential to have zlib in our libraries at present, except for SSH compression (which is optional). SHA, however, is used in a lot of places.
zlib is heavily used in Git, so that could be quite good to have a pure zlib implementation as well. I might look into that then ...Thomas
