www/firefox/files patch-configure
Log:
Add a tiny hunk to allow firefox to use our system libz instead of
building its own. Some years ago there was a security problem with
zlib-1.2.2 and firefox' configure checks the system's zlib.h to be
1.2.3 or higher.
FreeBSD patched the hole without bumping the version number, which
caused Firefox (and, likely, other Mozilla stuff) to build their own
versions instead (and install their headers).
