PIL compile/make bombs out at step #7 -- help?

[Karl G. Ulbrich]

I'm stuck trying to compile PIL.  My environment is 
a standard Slackware 7.0 Linux instalation (Python
1.5.2, but the distribution version, not custom).  

The install bombs out in step #7 of the readme,
which is mentioned as a problem spot... however,
I modifed Setup.in to point to /usr/include,
and checked to see that yes, there's a python1.5
directory in there and yes, it has lots of .h files.

make -f Makefile.pre.in boot blows up as shown below
(sorry for the lengthy garbage, but I'm -very- new 
th this whole "compile" world and figured the extra
debug info couldn't hurt much).

Thanks for any suggestions,
