I've heard an opinion that it's better to put shared objects (*.so)
not under ${PREFIX}/share but under ${PREFIX}/lib, because shared
objects are actually not sharable, that is, architecture dependent.  I
think this opinion is reasonable and followed it.

Hmm, you seem to be the one suited for shells/zsh* maintainer. Why
have you not imported Zsh-3.1.x pkgsrc so long time? ;)
