Thanks for the help guys, my user had access to those files, but not
write access... I was just including them for good measure anyway,
most of the libraries I needed were in $HOME/usr/lib

Anyway, it seems that th LDFLAGS variable was defined poorly and that
was putting some error in the ./configure script that wasn't popping
up until I tried to make it. So I just redefined LDFLAGS and tried it
over again and it worked.

Again, thanks for the answers.
