You don't have a complete Imake package.  Imake.tmpl is your system's
default values for various things requested in a particular applications
Imakefile.  the distribution should have come with one (it was able
to build enlightenment 0.12 which comes with the distribution -- which
requires imake to build).  If you didn't install all the x development
tools and their pieces that would most likely be the reason.
