I didn't get the autogen-stuff to work with the libraries/headers stored
under /usr/local/... Got about the same errors as you get. The
"quick-and-dirty" solution for me was to install these (self-built)
libraries under /usr/include and /usr/lib directly.
I didn't investigate further, but there seems to be some issues here
that the concept of /usr/local is not quite understood by the
"automatic" tools (maybe it's as simple as an env. variable or rc-file,
though...).
