No matter how hard I tried:
./configure always gives:
checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
checking pkg-config is at least version 0.9.0... yes
checking how to run the C++ preprocessor... g++ -E
checking for gtkmm... no
checking for libglade... no
checking boost/algorithm/string.hpp usability... yes
checking boost/algorithm/string.hpp presence... yes
checking for boost/algorithm/string.hpp... yes
checking boost/range.hpp usability... yes
checking boost/range.hpp presence... yes
checking for boost/range.hpp... yes
checking for rpmtsInitIterator in -lrpm... no
checking for dwfl_module_getsym in -ldw... no
configure: error: missing elfutils development headers/libraries (install
elfutils-devel, libebl-dev, libdw-dev and/or libebl-devel)
I am the most updated version:
git describe
release-1.3-47-g8dc503b
And system is running Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid (64-bit AMD, 2.6.32-21-generic -
default kernel), would appreciate very much if anyone can let me know the proper
requirements for installation.

Have you tried ...
# apt-get build-dep systemtap
Or else use the "bundled elfutils" mode of installation from the README:
download elfutils sources, untar into some directory, then configure
systemtap with --with-elfutils=THE_ELFUTILS_SOURCE_DIRECTORY/.

Thanks, but may not always worked with the latest development kernel.
At least that was my experience last time :-).

Ok thanks for this tip. I started this option, and it worked. I
did something extra: configure and make install the downloaded
elfutils, and it created the "ld" and "ar" files into /usr/local/bin,
which results in errors during compilation of systemtap. Now I have
deleted ld and other files, and did a "make distclean" inside elfutils
and compilation in systemtap went through successfullly.
Thank you Frank!!

(From update of attachment 4936)
As extracted from the config.log:
gcc: '-V' option must have argument
configure:2877: $? = 1
configure:2866: gcc -qversion >&5
gcc: unrecognized option '-qversion'
gcc: no input files
configure:2877: $? = 1
configure:2897: checking whether the C compiler works
configure:2919: gcc conftest.c >&5
/usr/local/bin/ld: unknown option `-z relro'
/usr/local/bin/ld: cannot load ld backend library 'libld_elf_x86_64.so':
libld_elf_x86_64.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
The error was because I had "make install" the downloaded elfutils, which
subsequently installed "ld" and "ar" into /usr/local/bin, and these latter
binaries are not working properly. But as systemtap just need the source of
elfutils, it is not need to "make install" for the elfutils.

This worked:
configure --with-elfutils=XXXXX
where XXXXX is the source directory of downloaded elfutil.
