I'm glad it built.

I think the issue we're all having stems from the structural redesign of opencv 2.2. Everything has been split up into smaller headers, and the functionality is similarly separated into different shared libraries. It's a more logical code structure, but it means that we need to have different makefile rules for pre-2.2 and 2.2+ code.

As far as -lhighgui -lcv -lcxcore is concerned, those libraries don't exist on my machine anymore. "highgui" is "/usr/lib/libopencv_highgui.so", and so on. That would explain why my 'fix' didn't work for you.
