Ah, ok.  That fixed it.  These are the issues I need to document clearly in
our INSTALL doc.  

Not entirely intuitive for us beginners: I first tried 

  --with-zlib=/usr/local/lib

But I needed

  --with-zlib=/usr/local

The libxml INSTALL doc says that it will use libz only if it's found.  I
guess it found the header files for zlib, but /usr/local/lib is not
compiled into gcc on that system?  (Is that a broken configuration?)

Thanks for the help.
