You need to disable wordlist_compress in your htdig.conf when you configure
with --without-zlib. This was fixed in March, so it changes the default
automatically in the 3.2.0b4 development snapshots.

I think you need to specify --with-zlib=/usr because the "lib" directory
is assumed. Either that or you can remove your config.cache file and
just run ./configure again without specifying anything about zlib.
