Did you also modify LD_LIBRARY_PATH? Otherwise try the brute force method:

  setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH  $HOME/local/lib
  setenv CFLAGS -I$HOME/local/include
  setenv LDFLAGS -L$HOME/local/lib
  rm config.cache
  ./configure --prefix=$HOME/local

What C compiler do you use? The default Sun compiler (cc) doesn't do
ANSI C, while the ANSI C compiler (acc) is not too good, too. I
recommend using gcc (gcc 2.95.1 is the latest).
