Right.

Here's the relevant part I guess:

configure:2939: checking for G_asprintf in -lgrass_gis
configure:2969: gcc -o conftest -O2 conftest.c -lgrass_gis
-L/usr/local/grass-6.4.svn/lib -lgrass_I -lgrass_vask -lgrass_gmath
-lgrass_gis -lgrass_datetime -lgrass_gproj -lgrass_vect -lgrass_dbmibase
-lgrass_dbmiclient -lgrass_dgl -lgrass_dig2 -lgrass_rtree -lgrass_linkm
-L/usr/local/lib -lgdal >&5
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lgrass_I
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
configure:2975: $? = 1

configure:3001: result: no
configure:3015: error: --with-grass=/usr/local/grass-6.4.svn requested,
but libraries not found! Perhaps you need to set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to

Any hints?
