I found the problem. Sudo wasn't the issue. It was that after 
./configure had failed to find some of the build deps and asked me 
to

    sudo apt-get install libxapian-dev libgmime-3.0-dev 
    libtalloc-dev zlib1g-dev

I did not run configure again, I just went straight to make. I'd think
that after 20 years of using autotools I wouldn't make that mistake but
that's what I found when I scrolled back up the buffer and looked more
carefully.
