OK, that's unusual and I can't reproduce it here even by copy & pasting  the commands and doing exactly the same. You could try 3.7.2.1 (although  I couldn't say why 3.7.2 wouldn't work) and using other build  directories.  

  I downloaded the file new and deleted everything and created the dirs  new again and then it worked - basically. Typical Suse-phenomenon - tons  of dependencies not found...  Luckily, I found a 3.7.3-git version on OSBS which runs fine so far.    -S

The dependency "problem" is not confined to any one distribution, you'll find tons of -dev packages needed in Ubuntu/Mint, etc. and -devel packages needed in Fedora and openSUSE.
These are files that are not installed by default even when you specify various development options at install time, e.g the following had to be done on Ubuntu for building ghpsdr3-alex and then some others will be discovered after they are installed and yet others when building other applications.
" apt-get install libfftw3-dev libasound2-dev libportaudio2 portaudio19-dev libncurses5-dev libwxbase2.8-0 libwxgtk2.8-0 python-wxgtk2.8 python-wxversion libusb-dev libusb-1.0-dev python2.7-dev"
