Replying to [comment:21 nickm]:
> I'd actually like to deprecate the TOR_SEARCH_LIBRARY nonsense if
possible, and not add its use for zlib. (I don't understand why this
patch starts using TOR_SEARCH_LIBRARY for zlib, but I assume it's
necessary? Can we use pkg-config instead?)
Hrm, it shouldn't. I simply moved the zlib check from being after the
openssl checks to being before it (because openssl depends on zlib).

Nope, that is possible. I ran into that, too. Do you have glibc-static
installed? `-lc` is probably resulting in an error due to the lack of a
static library. I should've added a more helpful error message for this
case. I can do that.
