Thanks for the quick response!
I was referring to building libxml2-2.7.7 and zlib-1.2.4 from source together, it happens to be on SuSE 9.2. I believe I've found an issue in the test suit on ia64 and I'm asking how to troubleshoot it further in order to help get it patched.
Cheers,

if you upgraded zlib to the latest version then you must upgrade
libxml2 to the latest version too 2.7.7
http://xmlsoft.org/news.html
2.7.7: Mar 15 2010
Bug Fixes: libxml violates the zlib interface and crashes (Mark Adler)
check with SuSE, they should have made sure to push the libxml2 update
at the same time.
