can't build with zlib

I have tried everything I can think of, and I can't seem to get svn to build
with the zlib that comes with it. It's always linking against
/usr/lib64/zlib.

./configure --prefix=/scratch/eharvey/svn
--with-zlib=/scratch/eharvey/subversion-1.6.12/zlib --enable-static

After build:

ldd `which svn` | grep libz

        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib64/libz.so.1 (0x00000034a6900000)

Perhaps I should set something like INCLUDE_PATH or LD_LIBRARY_PATH before
building it? Also, if I enable-static, shouldn't it be internal, shouldn't
ldd show me nothing?

Here's the reason why I care:

The default zlib compression is 5. I edited deflate.c to change this to 1.
I would like to know how much difference there is.

Thanks...
