The way every other autoconf package works is that when it gets done, it
results in a Makefile that sets CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS appropriately, It sounds
like what was done here was create a situation where you have to say:

export CPPFLAGS=yadda
explor LDFLAGS=yadda
make

to build it.  And that won't fly for distros that have automated build 
machinery.
