would like to use system libraries instead of bundled ones #44

Hi Lourens,

we are, to some extent, memory constrained, and run programs in multiple languages, all using zeromq.

Would you be open to change rbczmq so that using system libraries is at least an option?

Hi Stefan, does https://github.com/methodmissing/rbczmq/blob/master/CHANGELOG.rdoc#177-august-29-2014 help?

I would assume it does!

I suggest to add a side note to the README where it says:

This is a “fat” gem, including its own source code for both ZeroMQ and CZMQ libraries. No system installation of either library is required.

And I suggest to remove it from the TODO list :)

I know, I know :-) Pending a solid block of hours to handle loose ends here again. Thanks for the notes.
