Bugzilla Bug 203290

The freetype zlib configure flag switches between system and internal zlib, but
use flags are to switch optional features on and off. Shared libs should always
be  used for security considerations.

i fixed this in 2.3.5-r2.  looks like it's due for stabilization.

arches, please test and stablize media-libs/freetype-2.3.5-r2

Will zlib be stated as system library in all profiles forever?! It's better to
state it explicitly in the ebuild. Also the internal check is

if test x$with_zlib != xno && test -n "$LIBZ"; then

so when $LIBZ is empty for some odd reason, the internal zlib will be used.
Please overwrite the internal zlib header file with some error message so the
build will fail, instead silently doing wrong.

alpha/ia64/sparc stable

removing bsd since they don't have stable keyword

ppc64 stable

amd64 stable

Stable for HPPA.
