It's a bug in configure, but after looking at config.log seems that workaround for you is different: try to locate libgd.so and add containing directory to /etc/ld.so.conf and then run ldconfig. For example, if libgd.so located in /usr/local/lib, just add a line /usr/local/lib to /etc/ld.so.conf.

Best regards,
Victor

Try to run configure this way:

$ LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/libgd" ./configure --with-server --with-mysql --with-nxhttpd

"/path/to/libgd" will be "/usr/local/lib", probably.
