You've got the wrong version of zaptel installed.  If you had the trunk 
version of zaptel installed (or the 1.4 beta release) it would be able 
to compile.  You *must* have zaptel trunk for it to work.  I added 
support in zaptel to make different parts of SS7 easier to do.  To 
check out zaptel trunk, this is what you need to do:
`svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/zaptel/trunk zaptel-trunk`

Do a `make; make install` in that directory (zaptel-trunk) and then try 
compiling.  Also, you may want to get asterisk trunk as well, since 
that I merged in all the libss7 changes from the asterisk-ss7 branch 
into asterisk-trunk. (svn co http://svn.digium.com/svn/asterisk/trunk 
asterisk-trunk)
