Better still could have build.sh look at hosting OS and setup/check the ones
we know are absolutely required (ala xpg4/bin in PATH for solaris)

Fix the libz problem and I think the remaining things Matt had to set could

(I know for instance on a linux host from cross building I don't need to
set anything special these days).
