pciutils and pciutils-devel are version 2.2.6 release 3mdv2008.0. zlib is 
actually zlib1. zlib1 and zlib1-devel are version 1.2.3 release 8mdv2008.0.

That's on the laptop where I really want to build it. I also get the same 
error my my 2007.0 desktop, where pciutils is at veresion 2.2.3, and zlib1 is 
at the same version 1.2.3.

I'm wondering if I should pull down the source rpms for these and see what's 
inside them. I saw someone mention the other day on another thread that some 
distros break linuxbios. Maybe Mandriva is one of them.
