Actually, I think the configure script does detect it (at least
it does for me). However, it then tries to compile a little test
program which fails. Unfortunately the output of the configure
script makes it look like a problem with the library not being
detected rather than the test program not being compiled.

If you look into config.log, you will see the "true reason":

configure:23961: mingw32-g++ -o conftest.exe -g -O2  -I/usr/include 
-L/usr/lib -lexpat conftest.cpp -L/usr -L/usr/lib -ljasper -L/usr
