Works for me under -current and 14.2 (clean buildroot).

If liblzma.la is not present on your system (it should be there on a
clean 14.2 system) I'm assuming you're on -current. Sounds like you may
have a broken chain of libtool archives (.la files). See the Slackware
Current ChangeLog entry from April 19, 2018.
