If you want to build with with the MacVim GUI then you need to pull the source from [1]. Build instructions are at [2]. You seem to be using the "vanilla" Vim source which does not include the MacVim GUI. If you *really* want to build with the outdated Carbon GUI then you'll need to pass the --enable-gui=carbon to configure (if you are unsure, then the answer is most likely that you do NOT want to build the Carbon GUI and should instead build from the sources at [1]).
