You seem to be passing some very odd options, especially
--with-openjdk-src-zip=/var/www/openjdk-7-b146-linux-x64-20_jun_2011.zip
I have no idea what that is, but I definitely know it won't work and the
IcedTea build is probably just downloading a replacement.

Let's start with something simple. Try:

$ ./configure --enable-cacao

to build IcedTea. If that runs into problems, please post a full build log.
We can't tell much from a single error message at the end of the build, and
it's even harder to know what's going on if you're passing a whole host of
options, some of which may not have been used by others for a long time.

Thanks,
