Looks like you have installed some C++ package that pollutes the global
include namespace into /usr/local/include. Figure out what package
mistakenly dropped a memory.h there, and get rid of it.

That said, <memory.h> is an obsolete header these days (you should be
using <string.h> instead), so the fact that configure can't find a
working <memory.h> shouldn't prevent your package from still compiling,
if your package isn't relying on obsolete headers.
