Are you sure you have the right headers and libraries installed? The
configure check tries to compile this program:
#include <X11/Xlib.h>
#include <X11/extensions/Xvlib.h>
int main(void) { (void) XvGetPortAttribute(0, 0, 0, 0); return 0; }

This is linked against -lXv -lXext -lX11. Are you sure all these are
in the right place? Often you have to install the XFree86-devel
package or something like that.
