ASLR is a windows feature that randomizes the address space to make it
harder to write exploits. Thanks for special's patch in #2358 , Tor now
builds with ASLR turned on, but it's not so useful unless all of our
libraries use it too.
I don't anticipate much trouble from zlib and libevent; openssl might be
less than delightful here.
See #2358 for more background information.
