"ldd ethereal" on the Solaris 8/SPARC system I use at work says:

	cranford$ ldd ./ethereal
	        libgtk-1.2.so.0 =>       /usr/local/lib/libgtk-1.2.so.0

			...

	        libz.so =>       /usr/local/lib/libz.so
	        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1

			...

And the "libz"s we have in "/usr/loca/lib" are:

cranford$ ls -l /usr/local/lib/libz* 
-rwxr-xr-x   1 root     engr       70976 Feb  3  2000 /usr/local/lib/libz.a
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     engr          13 Feb  3  2000 /usr/local/lib/libz.so -> libz.so.1.1.3
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     engr          13 Feb  3  2000 /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.1.3
-rwxr-xr-x   1 mlewin   engr       68712 Sep 21  1998 /usr/local/lib/libz.so.1.1.3

but it's linked with "libz.so", not "libz.so.1.1.3".  (I don't know why
it's linked with "libz.so" rather than "libz.so.1", as it's linked with
sonames rather than linker names in other cases.)
