I think you might be running into a problem caused by the conflict between the 
"--disable-shared" option and the "rpath" specifications: if you're not using 
shared libraries, then there's no need to specify a shared-library search-path.

Try this invocation of the configure(1) script:

    make distclean
    ./configure --prefix=/sw/data/udunits/SLED_11/2.1.24 CC=gcc CFLAGS=-O3
    make
