Did you ever get it to work on Ubuntu? If so, what did you have to do?
OPENSSL_DEFAULT_ZLIB doesn't seem to do anything on Ubuntu 14.04. It
is suggested it should work on earlier versions
(http://www.ubuntu.com/usn/USN-1898-1/) but there is no mention of it
on newer versions.
I can confirm that this env var has the expected effect on Ubuntu 12.04, but newer versions such 14.04 come with OpenSSL complied without zlib altogether, so there is no way to enable this short of recompiling the openssl lib, unfortunately.
