Comment(by wenzeslaus):

 Same or similar problem on Ubuntu 12.04 32bit on 64bit machine for GRASS
 7.

 Even after setting the proper path to X11:
   --x-includes=/usr/include/ --x-libraries=/usr/lib/
 and succesfull configure with ''X11... yes'', compilation itself fails
 (e.g for nviz lib). The problem was missing header file `StdCmap.h` (or
 files) from package libxmu-dev.

 For me the solution was to install package libxmu-dev.

 This header file(s) should be explicitly checked by the configure script
 to avoid these confusions.

 BTW: There are several other issues with configure: it does not check
 wxPython version (instead, some error dialog is shown on start up) and it
 does not check presence of numpy (temporal and gui dependency, Ubuntu
 package python-numpy).
