The problem seems to be you are linking against older versions of 
libmad and libid3tag. Make sure you run 'make install' on both of those 
after you build them, before you build madplay.

FYI, --libdir only affects the installation directory for libraries, 
not where to look for them for building/linking. If you've installed 
the libraries in an unusual place, you'll need to tell the 'configure' 
for madplay where they are like this:

     ./configure ... CPPFLAGS="-I/some/include/dir" 
LDFLAGS="-L/some/lib/dir"
