zlib.pc with incorrect values

as it currently stands mingw-w64 builds resolve the wrong values in
multilib_src_compile when processing the zlib.pc.in file with sed,
and end up with references to the build dir in the final file.

Unsure how to resolve this atm, will be looking into it.

On a second look I am incorrect; the manual processing of zlib.pc.in
with sed does work, but gets installed to /usr/share/pkgconfig/zlib.pc,
along with /usr/lib/pkgconfig/zlib.pc created from win32/Makefile.gcc
which contains the incorrect references to the build dir.

I have made a pull request to https://github.com/gentoo/gentoo which
makes overwrites the win32/Makefile.gcc zlib.pc with the manually
processed, correct values zlib.pc.
