The last error seeming like a circular dependency is just a typo,
fixed by the following patch (already checked in).  As for why your
build is failing, it seems that the libibcm configure is not finding
an install of libibverbs.  Without knowing what your setup is like,
it's hard to speculate why that might be.

 - R.
