You might try 'cd src ; make id'
Before ./configure
Code:
[cepido@localhost src]$ make id
cc     id.c   -o id
id.c:20:20: fatal error: config.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [id] Error 1
[cepido@localhost src]$ echo $?
2

After ./configure
Code:
[cepido@localhost src]$ make id
  CC       id.o
id.c:26:29: fatal error: selinux/selinux.h: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.
make: *** [id.o] Error 1
[cepido@localhost src]$ echo $?
2

Code:
[cepido@localhost src]$ rpm -qf `which passwd`
passwd-0.78-1.fc14.i686

seems passwd utility resides in passwd package Smilie
