Thank you for any help!

libtool is not supposed to be used in the first place. I suspect you have $AR set to /usr/bin/libtool. Please check your environment and fix it.

It seems the configure script overwrites the AR environment variable in MacOS.

With this patch zlib compiles fine in my macbook.

Evil!

I've integrated your patch with the existing patchset and pushed an update.

Thanks for the heads up!
