Hmm... you're original post did not indicate the you've used /libs//zlib 
anywhere ;-)

Basically, writing

lib z ;

and then

...... /libs//z .....

should work. If you want to express dependency from png to z, try using 
<source>z in usage requirements for 'png'.

If you could sent me your project, I'll be able to give more specific advice.
