I don't think you can build ibutils without OpenSM libraries and include

unconditionally.

I think --with-osm option is used only to specify where OpenSM is
located.

When failed to detect it ibutils "thinks" it is in IBGold somewhere.

I think you need to install at least opensm-libs and opensm-devel
packages.
