What this does
This patch fixes build issues on newer macOS systems (like Apple Silicon Macs running Clang 17 or higher). It adds --with-system-zlib which avoids problems with fdopen() in zlib.
Why it's needed
Clang 17+ doesn’t play nice with the bundled zlib—it causes build errors because of a missing fdopen() macro. Using the system zlib fixes that.
Tested on
macOS Sonoma (M4 Mac Mini)
Homebrew + Clang 17+
