./configure can't find your X developement libraries.

Don't proceed with make until you have SM support and optionally XPM
support from ./configure (that means your X libs are found ok).

Execute:
  rm config.cache
  ./configure
  make clean # not really needed, but anyway

If this does not help, execute:
  ./configure --x-libraries=/usr/X11R6/lib

If this does not help, send the output of:
  ls -l `rpm -ql XFree86-devel | grep libXext`

Good luck.

Regards,
Mikhael.
