You need to set both HAVE_ZLIB_H *and* HAVE_ZLIB, and the latter happens to
be what controls if it appears in the curl -V output (more specificly the
lib/version.c source file). Yes, it seems unnecessary to depend on two
defines for this, so a future version may sort this out differently.

(I'll do this now, I'm just trying to encourage others to help out with tasks
like this.)
