I don't know more than you about Gimp's build process and Linux build processes in general (autoconf, automake et al.). So, I would just do the usual, figure out what generates the file and how, and work back up to "make configure" (or is it "./configure"?) if necessary, trying to guess what is missing.
Or ask on the Gimp developers' mailing list. But, given that you can find executable versions, I assume you want more than just run Gimp, in which case figuring out the build process yourself is a good exercise.
