What fails, "gmake" or "gmake install"?  Based on your errors, I would
say "gmake install" is failing....

Is /opt/gnome/lib in your library path?

Another problem is that it looks like libtool does not know how to build
a shared library on your system.  I can tell because in this line:

> > p-utils.a /opt/mgansser/GNU/gnucash-1.8.1/src/engine/.libs/libgncmod-engine.a /opt/mgansser/GNU/gnuc

It has "libgncmod-engine.a", whereas it should have "libgncmod-engine.sl".
So, you need to figure out why configure/libtool doesn't know how to build
shared libraries.
