Good news.

Build was successful -- I think, here's the log file http://goo.gl/SnKsP

(I had to compiled and install textinfo version 4.9 and install the 
latest version ncurses in order to compile texinfo.)

I've also to compile a sample plugin following the instructions here 
http://download.autodesk.com/us/maya/2011help/index.html?url=./files/API_Writing_a_simple_plugin.htm,topicNumber=d0e657386 
, but I got the error message:
error: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set

I was able to compile and link sample plugin after I removed 
-mtune=pentium4 flag.
