It seems that you C compiler is defective. /usr/lib/1 does not look like the name for a directory with useful contents. Text particles like "-I/usr/lib/1 -linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/include" in the compiler invocation look very suspicious.

You can check whether this directory actually exists and contains C header files (*.h). (And complain at Ubuntu.) Or you can try to updated with bzr the sources. Could be that parts of the configure system are defective.

BTW, it might be more productive to fetch the emacs-23.3a archive file. It seems to compile well everywhere.

It's the Makefile generation which is broken on emacs-23, because the C
preprocessor mangles "i386" to "1 ".  The include part should have been
"-I/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/gtk-2.0/include".

Not on current Ubuntu and Debian systems.

Looks like a preprocessing bug of the form of

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/786698

> make[1]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/crt1.o', needed by `temacs'.

Another known issue with Emacs 23. See various Ubuntu and GNU bug
reports, eg https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/emacs23/+bug/746510

Neither issue affects Emacs 24. There will be no more releases from the
emacs23 branch so neither will be fixed there. There is essentially no
difference between the emacs23 branch and the Emacs 23.3 release, so you
might not need to build the former if you have the latter.

Otherwise the simplest fix may be just to make symlinks in /usr/lib that
point to the real crt1.o etc while you build Emacs, then remove them
afterwards in case they interfere with anything else. Or edit the
Makefile by hand with the correct location of crt1.o etc.
