easy method: Use the build script for your platform

hard method: Make sure libgc.so (or dll or whatever the windows name is)
is in a directory that is searched by the linker at configure time, and
gc/gc.h is in a directory searched by the preprocessor.  You might need
to set CPPFLAGS and LDFLAGS before running configure.  See config.log for
more clues if it still doesnt find it.
