Which example were you trying to run?  Maybe you are running out of
memory?  examples/tutorials/run1.sh takes more than a gigabyte of
memory.

What kind of machine are you trying to build on?  Mac? Linux?

In any case, try setting the link flags to find GDAL.  If you
installed GDAL in /home/foo/gdal-bin, then you would use something
like

  export LINKFLAGS="-L/home/foo/gdal-bin/lib -lgdal"
