What that means, probably, is that configure couldn't find the header 
files it needs to build a GUI.

If you look at your auto/config.cache, what does it say for the line 
that starts

ac_cv_have_x

Mine is:

ac_cv_have_x=${ac_cv_have_x='have_x=yes 		
ac_x_includes=/usr/X11R6/include ac_x_libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib'}

This is a dumb question, but do you have the XFree86-devel RPM 
installed (assuming you're running RedHat; other distros may have 
different names for the package)? You should have a bunch of files in 
/usr/include/X11 or somewhere similar.

Plus, if you want the Gtk and/or Gnome UIs to be built, you have to 
have the respective -devel RPMs installed as well:

gtk+-devel
gnome-core-devel (I think)
