If you use #include <foo.h>, cpp will look for this file in 
/usr/include (it will look for /usr/include/foo.h).  If the include
files aren't there, you must use #include "/path.../foo.h", or if it
is in the directory you are compiling from, use #include "foo.h".
This sounds like your problem to me.
