This is standard GNU autoconf/automake stuff. It has nothing "strange" or a
"deep" problem, but it does what it says: it checks for the Qt libs (it does it
by compiling a small qapplication). So if you don't have the Qt libs and
includes properly installed you will get the error above. This is in no
way related to KDevelop; every contemporary GNU application and util
uses the ./configure -stuff for easy Un*x portability. You should be
glad to see the error because you _will_ run into problems when
creating a project in KDevelop (and, in fact, by compiling ANY Qt/KDE
source) if you don't fix your path/library/variable settings. Just try to
configure and compile any other Qt/KDE application and you will get the 
same error!
