syntax error near unexpected token during APC install on Linux

syntax error near unexpected token during APC install on Linux

So I am trying to install APC on our Linux server via SSH and when I am
trying to compile the APC installation I am running into the following
syntax error:
./configure: line 5102: syntax error near unexpected token `ext/apc,'
./configure: line 5102: ` PHP_INSTALL_HEADERS(ext/apc, apc_serializer.h)'
Here is a complete read out of the log from the compile command onwards:

If you have any suggestions for why this is occurring it would be much
appreciated. I did search online but wasn't able to find much relevant to
this particular error.
I've checked the configure line and found line 5102 contains the following:
PHP_INSTALL_HEADERS(ext/apc, apc_serializer.h)
