Sounds strange, 'normally' after ./configure you need to compile the
configured source.
make reads the Makefile and there are the calls to the compiler.

I have built ImageMagick a while ago and there was everything 'normal'.

Maybe the built process should be started out of configure but that isn't
normal behaviour.
