Thanks for your detailed feedback.

With CMake 3.2, what was happening? Was it failing to find any
OpenSSL, or was it finding the wrong one?

As you've since discovered, compression is an optional feature that
you have to explicitly enable. If you don't enable it, you don't need
zlib so the build doesn't even look for it. You might not be expecting
this because the default for the autotools build is to use encryption
if zlib can be found. Would you prefer the CMake build to do this
also?

Are you using the latest from git? This should have been fixed in
