You can build sudo with a static version of zlib using the configure
option --enable-zlib=builtin if you want.  Copying libz.sl to the
/opt/soe/local/sudo-1.8.1/libexec directory is OK too.

This is probably because it is being pulled in as a depedency for
libldap.sl and is not directly linked in to sudoers.sl.  This means
that the dynamic loader uses embedded path from libldap.sl, which
is probably /usr/local/lib (ldd will tell you).

You may be able to remedy this by editing plugins/sudoers/Makefile
and changing:

    SUDOERS_LIBS =   -lldap   $(LIBS) $(NET_LIBS) -lz

to:

    SUDOERS_LIBS =   -lldap -llber  $(LIBS) $(NET_LIBS) -lz

That may allow liblber.sl to be found in /opt/soe/local/sudo-1.8.1/libexec
when sudoers.sl is loaded.
