Compiling PHP5.5 from src code on centos failed

I am trying to compile php with imap from its source code, but while running the following configure command: 

./configure    
--prefix=/opt/php5   
--with-config-file-path=/opt/php5/etc   
--with-config-file-scan-dir=/opt/php5/etc/php.d   
--with-curl   
--with-gd   
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib64   
--with-png-dir   
--with-xpm-dir   
--with-freetype-dir  
--with-t1lib   
--with-mcrypt   
--with-mhash   
--with-mysql   
--with-mysqli   
--with-pdo-mysql 
--with-openssl   
--with-xsl   
--with-bz2   
--with-gettext   
--with-pear   
--with-zlib   
--enable-exif  
--enable-wddx   
--enable-bcmath  
--enable-calendar 
--enable-ftp   
--enable-mbstring   
--enable-soap   
--enable-sockets   
--enable-shmop   
--enable-dba   
--enable-sysvmsg  
--enable-sysvsem   
--enable-zip   
--enable-sysvshm   
--with-libdir=lib64   
--with-xmlrpc  
--enable-fpm  
--with-pdo-oci=instantclient,/usr,12.1   
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap/imap-2004g/  
--with-imap-ssl 
--enable-pic 
--with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2004g/lib

it give the following error: 

configure: error: utf8_mime2text() has new signature, but U8T_CANONICAL is missing. This should not happen. Check config.log for additional information.

I installed all required libraries for utf8_mime2text but same error kept occurring also tired the solution here

Package uw-imap-devel-2007f-16.el7.x86_64 already installed and latest version

the config.log file show this that may be related: 

configure:47265: checking for utf8_mime2text signature
configure:47287: cc -c -I  conftest.c >&5
cc: fatal error: no input files
compilation terminated.
configure:47287: $? = 4
configure: failed program was:

OS: CentOS 7

Any advise?

    I worked to solved the issue by doing the following:

    1- create new directory for imap

    mkdir /usr/local/imap

    2- downloaded client-c from here inside created directory by: 

    wget http://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/net/mail/imap/c-client.tar.gz

    3- tar downloaded file: 

    tar -xvzf c-client.tar.gz

    4- inide created directory imap-227f create two new directories like following:

    mkdir lib
mkdir include

    5- go to c-client source code

    cd imap-2007f/src/c-client/

    6- copy all the *.h files into include/ and all the *.c files into lib/

    cp *.h /usr/local/imap/imap-2007f/include/
cp *.c /usr/local/imap/imap-2007f/lib/

    7- go to imap ext directory inside php, in my case was: 

    cd /usr/local/src/php-5.5.38/ext/imap

    8- do phpize

    9- install imap-devel for centos

    sudo yum install uw-imap-devel

    10- configure by doing: 

    ./configure --with-libdir=lib64  --with-kerberos --with-imap-ssl

    11- do make

    12- after make, it will give the directory to imap.so extension, if not, do:

    find / -name imap.so

    13- do php -i | grep extension_dir to find extensions directory of php, then copy the compiled extension to that directory: 

    cp .libs/imap.so /opt/php5/lib/php/extensions/no-debug-non-zts-20121212/

    14- do php -i | grep 'Configuration File' to find the loaded php.ini, then add the new compiled extension to it extension=imap.so: 

    nano /opt/php5/etc/php.ini 
add: extension=imap.so

    15- restart php, for php-fpm:

    /etc/init.d/php-fpm restart

    in this case you will overcome following two errors:

    configure: error: utf8_mime2text() has new signature, but U8T_CANONICAL
configure: error: Cannot find imap library (libc-client.a). Please check your c-client installation.

    Starting from the top:

    $ cd /usr/local/
$ wget http://ftp.ntua.gr/pub/net/mail/imap/imap-2007f.tar.gz 
$ tar -xvzf imap-2007f.tar.gz
$ cd /imap-2007f
$ make lrh

    imap should now be built… now adjust your php parameters in ./configure:

    ./configure --prefix=/opt/php5 --with-config-file-path=/opt/php5/etc --with-config-file-scan-dir=/opt/php5/etc/php.d --with-curl --with-gd --with-jpeg-dir=/usr/lib64 --with-png-dir --with-xpm-dir --with-freetype-dir --with-t1lib --with-mcrypt --with-mhash --with-mysql --with-mysqli --with-pdo-mysql --with-openssl --with-xsl --with-bz2 --with-gettext --with-pear --with-zlib --enable-exif --enable-wddx --enable-bcmath --enable-calendar --enable-ftp --enable-mbstring --enable-soap --enable-sockets --enable-shmop --enable-dba --enable-sysvmsg --enable-sysvsem --enable-zip --enable-sysvshm --with-xmlrpc --enable-fpm --with-pdo-oci=instantclient,/usr,12.1 --with-fpm-user=www-data --with-fpm-group=www-data --with-imap=/usr/local/imap-2007f/ --with-imap-ssl --enable-pic --with-libdir=/usr/local/imap-2007f/lib/

    If you receive an error in config.log such as:

    make: *** No rule to make target /usr/local/src/php-5.5.38/ext/imap/php_imap.c', needed by ext/imap/php_imap.lo'. Stop.

    You’re probably missing the php_imap.c file in the aforementioned directory. Once that’s resolved then you should be able to successfully build your php with imap.
