Problems with Compiling Mapserver 5.0

[William Hudspeth]

I am trying to install Mapserver 5.0.0 on a machine running Suse Linux
10.1. I have used the following configure statement with no errors:

./configure --with-freetype=/usr/bin/freetype-config
--with-zlib=/usr/local/zlib --with-png=/usr/local/png
--with-jpeg=/usr/local/jpeg --with-gd=/usr/local
--with-proj=/usr/local/proj --with-geos=/usr/local/geos/bin/geos-config
--with-ogr=/usr/bin/gdal-config --with-gdal=/usr/bin/gdal-config
--with-postgis=/usr/local/pgsql/bin/pg-config --with-wfs --with-wcs
--with-wmsclient --with-wfsclient
--with-curl-config=/usr/bin/curl-config --with-httpd=/usr/sbin/httpd2
--with-php=/usr/include/php5 

When I run make, I get the following errors:

g++ -O2 -fPIC -Wall   -DNEED_NONBLOCKING_STDERR   -DHAVE_VSNPRINTF

The Makefile reference to GEOS is:

Thank you, W
