I just tried building ClamAV without zlib.a there at all, and it  
built just fine.
I don't think that is the problem.

Just for the record, here is a little shell script that will test for  
the presence of a devel library.

#!/bin/sh

TMPDIR=/tmp/zlib.$$
mkdir -p $TMPDIR
echo 'int main(void) { return 0; }' > $TMPDIR/try.c
if cc -o $TMPDIR/try $TMPDIR/try.c -lz >/dev/null 2>&1 ; then
   echo It succeeded. Zlib-devel is installed.
else
   echo It failed. Zlib-devel is not installed.
fi
rm -rf $TMPDIR
