Comment (by Phyx-):

 Hi @mboes,

 Thanks for the report.

 Are you trying to link against a static of dynamic library? The patch in
 5d841108acef950fed6a5e608ac9b18e7431aa87 is only for dynamic libraries. I
 have one locally that I haven't put for review yet for static libraries.

 I know the error message mentions `libz.so` but that's probably because it
 gave up and assumed it's an so, which is why I'm wondering if you're
 trying to link a static lib.
