 so in reality this might actually added 99kb (=34+77-12), I just wanted to say that there are other options,
 and if minigzip is not really being used, building it on every FreeBSD machines doesn't seem to be a good use of resources).

For embedded appliances, the code is rebuilt from scratch generally,
so please consider adding something like WITH_MINIGZIP src.conf(5) knob
disabled by default to disconnect it from default built.

So, every FreeBSD machine will not build it.
