Full automake build for VLC

I ran the scripts and tried compiling, but it gets stuck on 
beos_specific.cpp again. It seems the right files are not included. 
Here is the relevant Terminal snippet:

In the top of the file, it includes <vlc/vlc.h>. In that file, there is 
another file included, "vlc_common.h", but only if __VLC__ is defined. 
I would guess here is the problem. What should I do?
