Hi Greg :)
I wanted to point to any libz* file in the /usr/freeware/lib32 dir
(since the Makefile made by configure pointed to  /usr/freeware/lib/libz*,
while all other libraries point to /usr/freeware/lib32 (which is the way gcc
needs))

I also tried -L/usr/freeware/lib32/ -lz
but the same error occurs :|
I also greped for any lz in the Makefiles and changed them to
-L/usr/freeware/lib32/ -lz,
rebuilt the whole ... same effect

/usr/freeware/lib32/libz.a       /usr/freeware/lib32/libz.so.1
/usr/freeware/lib32/libzvt.so.3
/usr/freeware/lib32/libz.so      /usr/freeware/lib32/libzvt.so

this will my next try.

BTW: the gtk-client compiles fine 8)
and works!
