This is not a compiler issue, it's a library issue.  Apparently you did
--with-gssapi but your gssapi library doesn't actually work, or at least
doesn't work the way Postgres is expecting.  I'd suggest leaving off
that configure option --- unless you really need it, in which case
you're going to have to track down the reason for the incompatibility.
