+// to be usable for any API level is going to be some work (at the very least,
+// there's a ZLIB_VERNUM that will need to be handled since early versions of
+// Android did not have all the APIs that calling code will use if this is set
+// to the current value.

+// The NDK never updated the zlib headers when the platform updated, so until we
+// solve this the NDK will continue shipping the old headers.
