I have also hit this compilation issue, also on an old RedHat system.
Looking in the sources for the file libclamav/7z/Types.h for 0.97.8
there are some edits that seem to be working around this issue which
don't appear in the corresponding Types.h file for 0.98. The diff
output is a bit long so here are the relevant bits...
at line 13
/* aCaB -- lame workaround for "Byte" refef */
#include <zconf.h>
at line 46
/* aCaB -- use Byte defined in zconf.h
typedef unsigned char Byte;
*/
making these changes to the Types.h file with 0.98 enables the compile
to complete.
I have compiled 0.98 on CentOS6.4 without issues so this is probably
related to the gcc version or some such.

Richard,
I'm using RH8 because it's the one production server that needs to stay online.
Unfortunately I can't take it offline to upgrade to CentOS.
Shawn,
Tried configure without "--with-zlib=/usr/local" and I got the same error.

After downloading ClamAV 0.98 I tried to compile it, but I got this error,

Here's what I'm using,
gcc version 3.2 20020903 (Red Hat Linux 8.0 3.2-7)
./configure --enable-bigstack --enable-readdir_r --with-zlib=/usr/local
--with-libcurl --enable-no-cache --enable-milter --enable-dns-fix
--enable-clamdtop
I tried this work around, which allowed me to compile it,
(in clamav-0.98/libclamav/7z/Types.h line 59)
replaced this,
typedef unsigned char Byte;
with this,
#define Byte unsigned char
I don't know if it's safe to use, so I held off installing it. Also, I
didn't have any problems compiling the previous version of ClamAV
(0.97.8). Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
B.
Hey Bob,
Is there a reason why you're specifying --with-zlib? Can you give it a try
without that?
Thanks,
Shawn
