Looking at the manpage for gcc, you should be able to define the 
following environment variables:

   export CPATH=/usr/local/include
   export LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

or in csh syntax

   setenv CPATH /usr/local/include
   setenv LIBRARY_PATH /usr/local/lib

Then you should be able to run configure without any options.

Alternatively, you can run ./configure as follows:

   ./configure CFLAGS="-g -O2 -I/usr/local/include" CXXFLAGS="-g -O2 
-I/usr/local/include" LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"
