Which IRIX is this? The only sgi box I have access to doesn't have
any -lz library.
The configure check for libz *seems* basically sane, it looks for the
header and for a function in the library before concluding it works.
Maybe this IRIX ships with a broken version of the right library, and
we should add a check for that.
