You don't need "--enable-shared" because we're not building
standalone libraries, and you don't need "--with-dbfawk" because
that's the default anyway if support for it is found.

In any case, I tried your commandline directly, as well as:

    ./configure --without-imagemagick; make
and
    ./configure --without-imagemagick --without-graphicsmagick; make

using the downloaded .tgz file from SourceForge and everything went
smoothly here on OpenSuSE-10.0 with all three of them.

If you have automake and autoconf packages installed on your system
you might try "./bootstrap.sh" first, then retry your configure/make
commands.  There's a small possibility that the "configure" script
distributed in the package doesn't work on your system.
bootstrap.sh will create a new one, as well as new Makefile's.
