Summary: Zlib 1.2.5 error under compile cURL 7.23.1

Initial Comment:
I am try different compile command and all time have this strange issue. So i simplify configure command (see below).
System: Linux version 2.6.3 (gcc version 2.96 20000731 (Red Hat Linux 7.3 2.96-110))
Configure command: ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/curl-7.23.1 --without-ssl --with-zlib=/usr/local/zlib-1.2.5
... make ... make install
So what is problem?
/usr/local/curl-7.23.1/bin/curl --version
curl 7.23.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) libcurl/7.23.1 zlib/1.2.3
Protocols: dict file ftp gopher http imap ldap ldaps pop3 rtsp smtp telnet tftp
Features: Largefile libz
Where cURL get zlib version 1.2.3???
I am SURE my /usr/ folder dont content any zlib.* files (like headers libs) except /usr/local/zlib-1.2.5
/usr/local/curl-7.23.1/bin/curl-config --libs
-L/usr/local/curl-7.23.1/lib -lcurl -L/usr/local/zlib-1.2.5/lib
/usr/local/curl-7.23.1/bin/curl-config --static-libs
/usr/local/curl-7.23.1/lib/libcurl.a -L/usr/local/zlib-1.2.5/lib -lldap -lz

So can someone comment this problem with version Zlib???

Message:
So ONLY if i put libz,* (v 1.2.5) at /usr/lib cURL can configure and
compile as right way.
And as result of all: configure option --with-zlib (=/usr/local/zlib-1.2.5)
BROKEN!!!
FIX IT because this configure option dont get libs and includes by right
path.

Message:
I had found libz.* (v 1.2.3) at /usr/lib and remove it. Try recompile cUrl
by
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/curl-7.23.1 --without-ssl
--with-zlib=/usr/local/zlib-1.2.5
and had error like:
checking run-time libs availability... failed
configure: error: one or more libs available at link-time are not available
run-time. Libs used at link-time: -lz
so if i use
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/curl-7.23.1 --without-ssl
all fine/ SO cURL have problems with right Zlib support configuration!

Message:
All point to cURL use Zlib library of version 1.2.5
But ./curl --version show us Zlib version 1.2.3
SO WHICH REALLY cURL use Zlib vesrion ??? Because i am definitely known i
dont have zlib ver. 1.2.3. So it look like cURL 7,23,1 have problem at
compiling. Additionally other my compiled programs with support my zlib at
/usr/local/zlib-1.2.5 had show me right zlib version.

Message:
Please clarify exactly what the bug is you're reporting.

If you just need some assistance to build libcurl, then use the
curl-library mailing list. zlib is called libz.so or libz.a.
