Its likely all distros will eventually hit this when they upgrade. I put in a quick fix on SLES 10 SP1 and it works there. I'd suggest adding something like this to configure.in:

I already committed a better version of this and asked that it be
pulled into OFED 1.2 this morning.

BTW, why does SLES 10 use the name libgz for what everyone else in the
world calls libz?
