Bug description:CURL fails to load

Description:
------------
I am using PHP5.2.14 NTS MSI on Windows 7. But I think Windows version
doesn't matter.
When I enable the PHP extension cURL from the MSI, it's not getting shown
as enabled in a simple phpinfo() page.

Running php-cgi.exe -v from command line gives me this error if extension
cURL is enabled:

---------------------------
php-cgi.exe - System Error
---------------------------
The program can't start because zlib.dll is missing from your computer. Try
reinstalling the program to fix this problem. 
---------------------------
OK   
---------------------------

I am not sure when this dependency was introduced or it was already
present. I believe the MSI should have the dependent DLL too. Am I missing
something?

Test script:
---------------
Part of php.ini:
[PHP_CURL]
extension=php_curl.dll

Sample Code:
<?php
// create a new cURL resource
$ch = curl_init();

// set URL and other appropriate options
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, "http://www.iis.net/");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);

// grab URL and pass it to the browser
curl_exec($ch);

// close cURL resource, and free up system resources
curl_close($ch);
?> 

Expected result:
----------------
proper execution of the script.

Actual result:
--------------
[28-Jul-2010 10:51:34] PHP Fatal error:  Call to undefined function
curl_init() in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\phptest\test.php on line 3
