Yeah . . i even used the same switches you used for the sake of the example.  Check it out:

[root][/etc/samba]: pwd && ls -all
/etc/samba
total 12
drwxr-xr-x    2 root     root         4096 Aug 12 19:33 .
drwxr-xr-x   32 root     root         4096 Aug 12 19:33 ..
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root         1243 Aug 12 19:33 smb.conf
[07:33pm][maddog1]
[root][/etc/samba]: testparm
Load smb config files from /etc/samba/smb.conf
params.c:OpenConfFile() - Unable to open configuration file "/etc/samba/smb.conf":
        Success
Error loading services.

-=-=- switch i used: 

 ./configure --prefix=/usr --with-lockdir=/var/lock/samba --with-privatedir=/etc/samba
--with-swatdir=/usr/swat --with-smbmount --with-configdir=/etc/samba

I don't get it
