I use autoconf.
Before configure I make clean.

Config-log:

configure:15449: checking for xauth
configure:15482: result: no


But xauth is in /usr/openwin/bin

Are you generating your own configure with autoconf or are you using a
configure from a tarball?

Look in config.log an see if you can see what is going wrong.
