Maybe I'll get on for that, but I really have my eye on the ARRL
Sweepstakes November 2 and 3.  :-)

To compare:

make[1]: Entering directory `/home/nate/test/hamlib/src'
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=compile gcc -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I.

That was my assumption and it appears that it will be set /usr/local/lib
when that macro gets on the gcc command line like it does in your case.

Well, I'm going to give it a try.  If I had the FIF-232 I could try and
add the FT-890 as well.  I believe I can build a module that may work as
a translator and somebody is selling an after market version as well on
ebay.

Okay, thanks for the tip.

Hmmm, I think I have a problem right here with regard to versions.  It
appears Debian Testing is a bit old:

Autoconf version 2.13

automake (GNU automake) 1.4-p6

I see that additional automake versions are available, namely 1.5 and
1.6.  I'll give 1.5 a try since it seems to satsify several
dependencies.  I had both autoconf 2.54 and 2.13 installed.  2.13 is
heading to the bit bucket!

I now have automake 1.5.3 and autoconf 2.54 as defaults, so I shall try
again.  This should be a lesson for me to RTFM and test my own system
first.   Sigh...

I just finished building and installing the latest CVS, so it does work.

The problem was between the chair and the keyboard on my end!
