I tried this and the compile was successful. I have been following the book 
strictly, but it is always possible that I fatfingered something along the way.

It appears that it can't link with libz.

Test the build with the following commands:

echo "int main(){}" >> dummy.c && gcc dummy.c -lz

If you get the same error, try rebuilding and reinstalling zlib. Follow 
the book strictly and you will get what you want...
