  The distribution is "Red Hat Linux 5.2" .

  This mean 
    - one of the module was compiled using the zlib headers
    - the zlib library was not found at link time

  Most likely, you can configure, compiled some stuff, it didn't link
so you tried removing the library but didn't recompiled the .o,
why autoconf don't find -lz in 5.2 I have no idea.

  Suggestion: update to some recent version of Red Hat Linux
  Alternate: remove *also* the headers from zlib not just the shared library
