Looks fine to me, modulo my comment. |

This comment looks a bit odd ("where libjulia lies in" is non-idiomatic), and also doesn't explain the -I flag. It would be better to integrate the explanation into the text, not into the code example. Maybe remove the comment and change the text to:
For instance, when Julia is installed to ``$JULIA_PREFIX/bin`` (where you are
responsible for defining the ``JULIA_PREFIX`` variable appropriately) , its header
file ``julia.h`` is installed in ``$JULIA_PREFIX/include`` and its library ``libjulia`` is
installed in ``$JULIA_PREFIX/lib`` (by default). In this case, one can compile the
above ``test.c`` program with gcc using::

:) Ok, I will update it. |

Is the build failure relevant? If not, perhaps we can merge. |

you have an extra space before a ,. There should also be a comma after "In order to build this program".
While I am nitpicking, probably the paragraph should be consistent about "you" vs. "one" — pick one and use it consistently.

No longer relevant, as this environment variable has since been renamed. |
