Nothing. You need to modify the Makefile. The line you are specifically 
looking for is the line that does the compiling. You need to add an 
argument to that line, after the $(CC) variable. Your COMPILE line 
probably looks something like this:

COMPILE = $(CC) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) $(CPPFLAGS) 
$(AM_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS)

You have to add the speechd_up_CFLAGS variable like this.

COMPILE = $(CC) $(speechd_up_CFLAGS) $(DEFS) $(INCLUDES) $(AM_CPPFLAGS) 
$(CPPFLAGS) $(AM_CFLAGS) $(CFLAGS)

Also as Kirk mentioned, you have to ensure you have glib2 development 
packages installed as well.

Hope this helps.
