Hello again 🙂
Please give us the link to your source code so we can be on the same page, so to speak.
I presume you have successfully compiled other C++ sources without any problem.

I just downloaded the source and did
./configure
and
make
without any errors
following the instructions on the website you linked to.
I did not do the last step,
sudo make install
because I know that would work.

The errors you have indicate that you do not have the Leopard Developer package 3.00 or better installed or installed properly, or else you may have not correctly performed the commands, as on the website.
After the make here is the contents of the directory, lame-398-2

ACM TODO lame.bat
API USAGE lame.spec
COPYING acinclude.m4 lame.spec.in
ChangeLog aclocal.m4 lame clientsvc6.dsw
ChangeLog.header config.guess lame projectsvc6.dsp
DEFINES config.h lame_vc6.dsw
Dll config.h.in lame_vc8.sln
HACKING config.log libmp3lame
INSTALL config.status libtool
INSTALL.configure config.sub ltmain.sh
LICENSE configMS.h mac
Makefile configure macosx
Makefile.MSVC configure.in misc
Makefile.am debian missing
Makefile.am.global depcomp mpglib
Makefile.in doc stamp-h1
Makefile.unix dshow test
README frontend testcase.mp3
README.WINGTK include testcase.wav
STYLEGUIDE install-sh vc_solution

So on my machine it works properly. We need to figure out why your machine is different.

I was sure that something going wrong with my mac because the first time I have compile it without errors. I have download the xcode dmg from here: http://adcdownload.apple.com/DeveloperTools/xcode_3.1.2_developer_tools/xcode312_2621developerdvd.dmg
and I have installed it with pressing "Next" and select all packages to install.

About commands on Terminal I am sure that I am doing it with the right way! Also when I am trying sudo make install and system ask for my password (my pass is blank) when press enter is doing nothing!

That is the right place. However, if you had an version of 2.x, did you completely uninstall it? If not, there are problems.
You should have a directory /Developer
In a terminal enter cpp --version

You should get:
i686-apple-darwin9-gcc-4.0.1 (GCC) 4.0.1 (Apple Inc. build 5465)

You may need to have a real password. If your password is blank, it may not work properly. Create a real password for doing this kind of stuff.

Ok I will create a real password but I think this is not the problem right now, is it?

I would first suggest updating to Leopard 10.5.5 so we are on the same footing.
Then you should describe exactly what you did, since when I did it, it worked perfectly, so obviously there is some difference.

Use Macports ( http://www.macports.org/ ) to install software. Then you just issue

sudo port install lame

... and it fetches and compiles it, fixing all dependencies.
