PATCH 1/1 binutils: Use target provided zlib

When using -fpic (security related cflags), qemux6-64 builds would fail due to linker symbol errors. This was due to the internal zlib that binutils was using.

Add the switch to tell it to use the target system zlib which is already in DEPENDS. That zlib is already compiled with the correct flags.

this looks good to me.

When using -fpic (security related cflags),

Do you mean -fpie?

I do, thanks :)

I'll fix the typos in -next.

Cheers,

Richard
