I just tried to compile it, and it doesn't work. First, as you found,
you need to have the "--disable-libsuffix". But it still doesn't compile
because it can't find the libXt (you can see this error on :
http://buildd.debian.org/fetch.php?&pkg=digikam&ver=0.6.0-3&arch=sparc&stamp=1079579083&file=log&as=raw
)

I needed to add a LDFLAGS line in debian/rules :
  export LDFLAGS +=-L/usr/X11R6/lib

Now it's compiling ... not finished yet !
