This happens because the configure script detects zlib present and activates
that, but when it later compiles a source that needs it, the proper include
file is not found/read. This is indeed a minor flaw in the configure script.
(If you can figure out more details or even provide a patch, I'm interested.)

You can work around this in two ways:

1. make sure the compiler finds the zlib header file when you compile

or

2. run configure with the proper option to disable the zlib usage
