try the ./configure step first without any flags. actually both flags
are supposed to be not needed in a 'normal' environment. gem's configure
should detect libv4l, if you have the package 'libv4l-dev' installed.
also you usually shouldn't need to tell ./configure where the pd sources
are, since if you have pd already installed it will look
in /usr/local/include and /usr/include for the necessary files.

and before doing the steps from autogen.sh, do first:

sudo aptitude build-dep gem && sudo aptitude installlibmagick++-dev

(the libmagick++-dev part is not mandatory, but it will enable gem to
use imagemagick library for reading many image formats)

this will install all necessary packages and their respective dev
packages for compiling gem.
