/usr/local/include is just one of the locations where the file is 
searched for - since different methods of installing the prerequisite 
will put files in different places.

Manually copying files is never the solution.

You likely don't have the correct prerequisite packages installed.


The best way to ensure that the correct prerequisites for building RPMs is

yum-builddep -y redhat/freeradius.spec

That will ensure that the appropriate packages are installed to allow 
make rpm to work correctly.
