I ran into this problem as well, and I forget how I
got around it...  I can get more details when I get
home tonight and am sitting in front of my mythbox. 
For starters do a 'find / -name lame.h' and make sure
it exists on your system.  I think that the default
Red Hat 7.3 install doesn't include it.

I messed with RPMs for a while.  I finally got it to
work... Now I'm pissed that I didn't document this
whole process like I meant to.  Search around on
RPMFIND for a RPM that includes lame.h.

More details to come tonight.
