Valentin, thanks for your help, it did the trick.
However, the configure script generated more problems:

checking for CURL-LIB version >= 7.10.2...
*** An old version of CURL (7.9.8) was found.
*** You need a version of CURL newer than 7.10.2. The latest version of
*** CURL is always available from:
***        http://curl.sf.net/
***
*** If you have already installed a sufficiently new version, this error
*** probably means that the wrong copy of the curl-config shell script
is
*** being found. The easiest way to fix this is to remove the old
version
*** of CURL, but you can also set the CURL_CONFIG environment to point
to the
*** correct copy of curl-config. (In this case, you will have to
*** modify your LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable, or edit
/etc/ld.so.conf
*** so that the correct libraries are found at run-time))
no
*** All of curl dependent parts will be disabled ***

Is this important? What is curl? Configure does not stop on this, so I'm
guessing it's not much to worry about.
Then, another error:

checking for AALIB version >= 1.2.0... no
*** The aalib-config|aainfo program installed by AALIB could not be
found
*** If AALIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or use --with-aalib-prefix to set the prefix
*** where AALIB is installed.

Then, another more serious error, which halts the script:

checking for png_read_info in -lpng... no
configure: error: *** libpng is needed (PNG library not found) - try to
use --with-png-prefix option ***

I checked /usr/lib and there's a bunch of files called libpng... so I'm
assuming I have the PNG libraries installed. I don't know why it
couldn't find it - I had already run ldconfig to include the xine
libs... i tried running
./configure --with-png-prefix
but the same thing happened. Or was i supposed to substitute the actual
name of the lib file or something? I'm confused :(

Anyway, thanks for listening to all my newbie questions :)
John C.
