What is the output of lipo -info /opt/local/lib/libz.dylib? Also, please remember to use WikiFormatting

Better leave the version field set for tickets where it could possibly be relevant.

It works fine for me on Snow Leopard. Did you upgrade from Leopard? If so, did you follow the Migration page and rebuild all your ports?

I had the same issue and it was due to the fact that I didn't reinstall all my ports after upgrading to Snow Leopard. After following the migration instructions, tiff compiled fine.
