I lately had similar pain compiling GIMP and its dependencies.
This brought me many steps further: 
https://staff.banu.com/~muks/tmp/gimp-build-script.txt together with 
http://wiki.gimp.org/index.php/Hacking:Building/Linux.
Some dependencies might be missing on your system (the error you 
reported may come from a missing libpng development package), but 
./configure or ./autogen.sh should tell you them.

Kind regards,
