Looks like there is something wrong with your system's configuration.
Maybe your C compiler is misconfigured, or you're missing packages you
need to install in order to compile code on this system.

I don't have access to a system like this, so I can't debug it myself;
you'll need to look at the config.log file and find the spot where it's
trying to look for those headers, and see what the actual error is (note
that you will find LOTS of errors in that log; that's the point of
autoconf, to try different things until it figures out what works and
what doesn't--you have to keep looking until you find the errors related
to that particular failure, for example looking for locale.h etc.)

Those error messages should help us determine what's wrong on your
system.
