Recompile Php56 with Zlib support Help

[Tango]

Apparently I have somehow installed php56 without zlib support as I try to run a script and get the following error:
Abort pclzip.lib.php : Missing zlib extensions

I have been trying to do the following (per http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4024181/enabling-zlib-support-in-php):

./configure --with-zlib-dir=/usr
make
install

However doing the <?php phpinfo() ?> script shows that PHP was configured with zlib support and that it is enabled.

Can anyone help me with this?

'./configure'

'--localstatedir=/var'
'--with-config-file-scan-dir=/usr/local/etc/php'
