Just trying here to build on a new machine Intel Atom "Pine Trail" D510MO Motherboard.  Ubuntu 10.04 64bit.

I needed to do the following
CFLAGS=-I/usr/include/geotiff ../xastir/configure

as I was getting 
map_tif.c:88:21: error: xtiffio.h: No such file or directory

(god bless archives)

xastir 1.9.9 has been configured to use the following
options and external libraries:

MINIMUM OPTIONS:
  ShapeLib (Vector maps) ................. : yes

RECOMMENDED OPTIONS:
  GraphicsMagick/ImageMagick (Raster maps) : yes (GraphicsMagick)
  pcre (Shapefile customization) ......... : yes
  dbfawk (Shapefile customization) ....... : yes
  rtree indexing (Shapefile speedups) .... : yes
  map caching (Raster map speedups) ...... : yes
  internet map retrieval ................. : yes (libcurl)

FOR THE ADVENTUROUS:
  AX25 (Linux Kernel I/O Drivers) ........ : yes
  libproj (USGS Topos & Aerial Photos) ... : yes
  GeoTiff (USGS Topos & Aerial Photos) ... : yes
  Festival (Text-to-speech) .............. : yes
  GDAL/OGR (Obtuse map formats) .......... : no
  GPSMan/gpsmanshp (GPS downloads) ....... : yes

xastir will be installed in /usr/local/bin.
Type 'make' to build Xastir (Use 'gmake' instead on some systems).

Everything was straight from the distro.
