If you're leaving build and source directories around once you've installed a package, then you've not stuck to the text. You've missed the following warning under "5.3 General Compilation Instructions". Important: After installing each package, delete its source and build directories, unless specifically instructed otherwise. Deleting the sources prevents mis-configuration when the same package is reinstalled later. This may or may not be the cause of your problems, but those warnings are there for a reason. You have the right idea by creating separate build folders, but it's not necessarily enough - there's no guarantee that the source folder is unaffected by the first build, and so removing and re-extracting the source avoids the problem.
