Actually, it properly uses "-lz" in the libtorrent.pc file when built and
installed in the buildroot; so such a patch is unneeded. It's just the
as-shipped libtorrent.pc that contains the zlib.la usage.

$ grep Libs /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libtorrent.pc 
Libs: -L${libdir} -lz  -lboost_date_time -lboost_filesystem -lboost_thread -lz
-ltorrent

$ rpm -qf /usr/lib/pkgconfig/libtorrent.pc 
rb_libtorrent-devel-0.11-3.i386

For the file naming stuff, I renamed everything to include "torrent"; and have
sent a message to the upstream development list with regards to this.

Other stated issues are fixed in release 3.

Thanks.
