Thanks, but:

I infer that libbzip2 is in LDFLAGS (as -lbzip2, I guess).  Is that
right ?  But I think that libraries should be in *_LIBS, not LDFLAGS.
LDFLAGS needs to stay at the beginning so that it can work if you set
it to -static or something.

What is this program "zlib-options" ?  I don't have it on my system.

Ian.
