THe world hasn't standardized on how we're going to handle the whole
multiarch thing (mixing 32/64bit binaries, or perhaps endianness, or
some other mix).  Fedora has it's answer and is forging ahead, but I'm
not surprised that configure doesn't find it right away.  Try instead
ln -s /usr/lib64/libidn.so.11.5.16 /usr/lib64/libidn.so
and then tell configure to look in that directory.  It should work just
fine.
