*Hi, Henry christenson.
I am using Slackware 12 and compile this game from sources some times. 
So, I never take such error (and I never use LinuxFromScratch as well). 
But I have one not original version how you can decide your problem. May 
be you forgot to add option  --with-sdl-prefix=PFX to configure 
parameters? Also try to override paths to libraries by using environment 
variables like LDFLAGS (see ./configure --help). I am not programmer, so 
this is only my opinion and for more professional answer you need wait 
some time, when game programmers read your message and be able to answer.*
