(1) While I did not get this particular message I got rid of similiar
messages by doing 'rm -rf .deps' before make. If you have a lot of
outdated dependencies this is advisable.

(2) I got gnome-url.h and gnome-href.h missing. They were sitting in
$prefix/gnome-libs/libgnome/ so I copied them by hand to 
$prefix/include/libgnome.  I suspect that the 'make install' step in
gnome-libs is incomplete. $prefix is whatever prefix you used in
autogen.sh.

(3) While I'm at it: If you have two different gtk/glib versions under
different prefixes -- say glib 1.0.x in /usr/local and glib 1.1 in
/opt/gnome -- you must have /opt/gnome/bin in your PATH ahead of
/usr/local/bin. If you do not, there is a shell script called glib-config
(or gtk-config) in both places and you will execute the wrong one. This
causes all kinds of weird errors. 

(4) I got rid of all kinds of errors by installing the GNU tools
(autoconf, automake, and libtool) in /opt/gnome. This guarantees it will
pick up the right m4 macros.
