The probable reason is that you're trying to compile  32-bit binaries 
(the default for the i686 platform), but you Ubuntu system doesn't have 
the required libraries installed (only the 64bit ones are installed on 
most systems).

Two solutions:   1) install the optional 32bit binaries using commands 
such as

apt-get install ia32-libs

(if you want to build with Tcl support you'd also need the 32bit version 
of libtcl -- don't know the name of the package).

2)  Compile 64bit binaries.   You can copy 
common/Makefile.machine.i686-ubuntu to common/Makefile.machine.i686, or 
edit the file by hand.
