Well, "locate g-wrap" would be one way. Other is "find / -name \*g-wrap\* -print".

Well, gw-core-utils.c is part of the gnucash source tree. The problem
is the missing g-wrap-compatibility.h, which should be part of the g-wrap-devel
package (or whatever SuSE calls it).

Well, there should be RPMs. Indeed, there has to be RPMs for the
gnucash-1.8.0 RPM to work successfully. So you're best off trying
to find the SuSE g-wrap development RPM, but I have no clue what it
might be named.

Remove the -Werror from all g-wrap Makefile (or Makefile.in) files..
That should help here.
Also, I would recommend you use ./configure --prefix=/opt/g-wrap-1.3.4
to make it easier to uninstall it later. Similarly, I would recommend
you install gnucash into /opt/gnucash-1.8
