Well after all of this I think it has something to do how my distribution 
handes the make stuff. If I "manually" type in the ./configure stuff 
configure tells me about "checking for hicolor theme... not found. Installing 
our copy.
If I use their build-system configure tells about "checking for hicolor 
theme... found".

So I guess I had to blame not you guys for this ... :)
