NGINX "--with-zlib=..." linker error

[Fabiano Furtado Pessoa Coelho]

Thank you, Maxim!

It worked!!!! Amazing!!!!

Just one more thing....

I was looking in the source code and found it:
...
auto/cc/gcc:131:if [ ".$ZLIB_OPT" = "." ]; then
auto/cc/gcc:132:    ZLIB_OPT="-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer $PIPE $CPU_OPT"
auto/cc/gcc-133-else
auto/cc/gcc:134:    ZLIB_OPT="$ZLIB_OPT $PIPE"
auto/cc/gcc-135-fi
...

Do I need to specify "--with-zlib-opt=-fPIC -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer"
because of these ZLIB_OPT default values?

Thanks in advance.
