Tango uses zlib and OpenSSL. I you want to use the modules that uses 
those libraries you just have to link to them. If you don't use them you 
don't have to do anything. Of curse, this is as long as Phobos is static 
library. When I think about it maybe Tango dynamically links to OpenSSL 
and statically to zlib.
