You could try 1.0.1, but I don't think anything changed in this area.

Is that the first error you get?  If so, it doesn't make much sense to
me.  If there are previous errors, it might be that you're using an
old version of zlib, but that's just a guess.

We used to regularly build SVN snapshots on Solaris, but then
SourceForge closed down their compile farm, so we no longer have
access to Solaris boxes.  0.9.9 was the last release to be tested
and built successfully.
