You dont put header file paths in PATH. PATH controls where you look for executables and only executables.
Try ./configure --help to see what options it lets you set. Paste its output here too please.
thank you for pointing that out - serves me right for trying out things I do not understand - I will go and do some reading ...
and ... thank you for taking the time to help.
