he following fails on solaris 2.7 (with both version 3.22.32 & 3.23.33):

Error:

config.log shows this:

The problem is that zlib can't be found because it's in /usr/local/lib and there's no -L/usr/local/lib in the above command. What I don't understand is how it is being found in the test for zlib itself, which happens earlier in the configure process.

Can you check the config.log to see what it says right after:

configure:4891: checking if libz with compress

(Your line number might be different than mine.)

That should give me a hint about why this is happening.

Thanks,
