Btw, which version/package/libraries/headers should be used to port a

MacOSX - which one to use???
For zlib, the OS doesn't provide headers, so you have no choice. The
same for libpcap and some others. As to link to which lib: usually not
interfering there at all is the right thing, i.e. let the package do
the pick - usually that will be the Fink version of the lib, but in
e.g. the case of zlib they will link against the systems version of
zlib.
It doesn't? Sure, its a version behind, but i thought the fink policy
was NOT to depend on fink zlib at all because it is not needed and just
there for backward compatibility for old packages.
