This is almost certainly a prefix issue.  When mixing packages and
source together you need to be careful about where things get
installed.  by default packages are installed in 
    --prefix=/usr/local

If your distribution installs things elsewhere (say /usr) then it
will not notice your copy of libole in /usr/local.  Use the
GNOME_PATH environment variable to point to /usr/local, delete the
config.cache for gnumeric and re-configure.  Things should work.
