This thread might have been a lot shorter if it had been made clear at
the beginning that the problem related to Slackware-current. Perhaps it
was mentioned somewhere along the line but I missed that and was under
the impression we were talking about Slackware-15.0.

Slackware-15.0 comes with zlib-1.2.11 (and the build works under any
conditions for me), whereas zlib-1.2.12 is part of Slackware-current.

My understanding has always been that this list is to discuss
SlackBuilds for stable Slackware i.e. Slackware-15.0, NOT Slackware-current.
