It shouldn't be flag -Iinclude, but -I(where are includes), eg 
-I/usr/include or even more -I/usr/include -I. -I/some/other/dir

so...
1) rather than gmake try to type 
make all

I typed it and it succesfully compiled everything

2)  another way is to before ./configure set CPPFLAGS, like that: 
export CPPFLAGS="-I/needed/include/dir -I/second/needed/include/dir -I."  
etc.

Good lock
