I haven't tried myself, but this is likely due to some -dev packages 
that you need to install in order to get it to compile, because 
apparently configure can't always distinguish between the main binary 
and the -dev package needed to compile against the package.  Look in the 
documentation for what they are; on gNewSense they usually are called 
$PACKAGENAME-dev.

This information is probably in either README or INSTALL, although often 
because the maintainers need compatibility with all distros the naming 
convention of some of the packages may not be exactly right.

It may even tell you just above the error what package that error is 
caused by, although I would guess that you need the curl -dev package to 
solve this particular one.
