Ah, okay, makes sense then. ;)

Not really, no, that's just something we inherited from the way DMD 
builds static libraries. I suppose having an embedded libz also makes 
building on Windows/MSVC more straightforward.

Would be great if you could open a pull request with your changes. I 
hope I'll have some time for LDC-related work this weekend.

Cheers,
