Please look at the file config.log.  Locate the part that documents the
check for mcrypt.h.  It will tell you the error that the preprocessor
gives you.  That error may help the package maintainer of mcrypt to fix
this issue.  It is very likely (but not certain) that some change in the
configure.ac can be made to fix this.  

If you and the maintainer don't know how to proceed further, please show
that part of config.log.  Which options did you give to ./configure, if
any?

Cheers,
Ralf
