John, etc,

In theory what configure scripts are supposed to do when pointed at gdal-config
is to run "gdal-config --cflags" to get appropriate values to add to the
CFLAGS or similar macro.

eg.
warmerda at gdal2200[127]% ~/gdal/apps/gdal-config --cflags
-I/debian/home/warmerda/gdal/port -I/debian/home/warmerda/gdal/core -I/debian/home/warmerda/gdal/ogr 
-I/debian/home/warmerda/gdal/ogr/ogrsf_frmts

or
warmerda at gdal2200[128]% /usr/local/bin/gdal-config --cflags
-I/usr/local/include

If you want GRASS to be able to utilize a built, but not installed GDAL you
would need to update the configure accordingly.

In the meantime John, can't you just do a "make install" for GDAL?   I
think things would work fine then.

Best regards,
