Does configure exit cleanly or does it throw an error when this
happens?  I *think* that ac_nonexistent.h is something autoconf uses
to test and isn't supposed to exist.  (But I've not found that
documented ATM.)  I can tell you that a similar message is found in
the config.log of some software I successfully build all the time.

What errors are you getting from make?  It might be worth posting a
link to the output from ./configure && make (and perhaps also the
config.log file).
