Ubuntu is special, it has a peculiar set-up that breaks the usage of
vanilla gcc builds (but their own gcc is patched to accompany this
set-up).
The quick fix is adding the following to your ~/.bashrc

For i386:
LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu
CPATH=/usr/include/i386-linux-gnu
export LIBRARY_PATH CPATH


For x86_64:
LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
CPATH=/usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu
export LIBRARY_PATH CPATH
