This seems to work, but what's the benefit? It saves 1 file out of 37
in my build. It doesn't seem to have any significant effect
(beneficial or otherwise) on startup times. Personally, I'd prefer to
have library.zip separate, so that I can look inside easily if I need
to debug, but that's rare.

Can you explain why this change is worth it?

Paul.
