A .la file is a libtool archive and you need to use libtool
as a wrapper to gcc do the link.  Hmm, I don't really see how your log
is possible give the makefile I posted.  The final link of pngtest should
look like this:

libtool --mode=link gcc -o pngtest 
-I/usr/people/marcusd/packages/swarm/zlib/include -Wall pngtest.o libpng.la 
-L/usr/people/marcusd/packages/swarm/zlib/lib -lpng -lz -lm
gcc -o .libs/pngtest -I/usr/people/marcusd/packages/swarm/zlib/include -Wall 
pngtest.o .libs/libpng.so -L/usr/people/marcusd/packages/swarm/zlib/lib -lpng 
-lz -lm -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/people/marcusd/packages/swarm/png/lib
creating pngtest

If you want the test program to run, you'll probably need to symlink
the libz.so.* files into the .libs subdirectory.
