Yes, I found this on Solaris for Intel 2.6 as well. I hadn't gotten
time to look into it more. For now, I've removed the zlib module from
the build and continued on with my own system tests. I was thinking I
just had a _very_ old version of libz (Oct 97).
Since I didn't get time to download the libz, I couldn't test this on
the AIX 4.2 systems at work.
