It should still be built, but it is conditional on having guile
installed. Check that in addition to the guile package you have the
guile-devel package installed (or the equivalent, I'm assuming a
redhat-like system).

Also, on the command line the program is called 'sol'.

If this doesn't solve the problem, could you check the following things:

1) After running configure there should be a short summary saying what
is being built. There should be a line like:

Compile AisleRiot (Have guile): yes

if this line reads "no" then it hasn't found guile and you should
check that is installed properly.

2) Once the build is complete look in the aisleriot subdirectory and
check that there are some .o files in there (i.e. ls *.o gives you
some results. If so check for the file sol in the same directory. If 1
is OK this is unlikely to be wrong, but we need to check it to rule
out a silent build failure.

3) Look for the file sol in $prefix/bin/. If it is there and the is
still no menu item it is a desktop file issue.

4) Do
  locate sol.desktop
and check that it appears somewhere sane like
$prefix/share/applications. It should also appear in the build
directory. Also check the permissions on the desktop file. If it isn't
world readable then there is a bug.

If all four of those tests are OK then it is probably not a
gnome-games issue but a bug somewhere in the menu code. I doubt this
is the case though. My bet is on a missing guile-devel.
