Thanks for getting back with those details. I'm surprised to not be
able to reproduce the issue, even though zlib-dev is installed on my
system as well. Could you post the contents of
output/build/libssh2-1.4.3/config.log ? Even though I agree with your
patch, I'd like to understand why the configure script is not picking
up first the cross-compiled zlib instead of the host zlib.

Thanks,

Thomas
