While trying to compile a program, I get a bunch of undefined reference messages in the config.log:

I just got these today from rpmfind.net. Do these require some dependencies that I don't have installed?

correct me if I'm wrong here, but slackware isn't an rpm-based system, so as a result the dependencies of the rpm you're trying to install aren't found in the rpm-database. I think you should look out for slack packages

I probably should have mentioned, I ran rpm2tgz on the .rpm file first to turn it into a Slackware-compatible .tgz package. Should that do it, or am I missing something else?

I have no idea, but to troubleshoot your problem, I'd try it with native slackware packages
