It seems that one of GD_INC or POSTGIS_INC has been set to '-I ' in the 
Makefile and that breaks the build command.

It could be that you aren't pointing to a valid pg_config script (the 
configure script doesn't even validate the path before it calls 
pg_config, duh!). What do you get when you run the following command?

   /usr/src/postgresql-7.3.2/src/bin/pg_config --includedir
