Even when the grads binaries do not work for you the pre-compiled supplibs
might. If you built your supplibs did you checked whether all the packages
completed succesfully? Do a

% ls *.install

and see if ll packages are accounted for, specially udunits. If not, enter

make install ALLDIRS=udunits

and see what is going on (specifying ALLDIRS this way avoid tons of
distracting output from other packages.)

The first unusual thing that I noticed

 checking for supplibs directory... ./supplibs/i686-pc-linux-gnu

I usually place the supplibs parallel to the grads directory

     ../supplibs/i686-pc-linux-gnu

(I am not sure if this is a problem...)  Here is another clue:

Checking which GrADS binaries can be built
------------------------------------------
checking udunits.h usability... no
checking udunits.h presence... no
checking for udunits.h... no
- gradsnc (plain netCDF) build disabled

Somehow it cannot locate udunits.h. Can you see if you have this include
file under

     ./supplibs/i686-pc-linux-gnu/include/udunits
My guess is that your udunits build failed.
