I went ahead and built LCIO using the instructions found on the confluence
and I didn't have an issue.  I used ROOT version 5.34, cmake version 2.8.6
on OpenSuse 12.1.  Building LCIO requires a cmake version greater than 2.6
so make sure that you have that installed.

It looks like the problem is occurring when it's trying to generate the
LCIO ROOT dictionaries (I think).  If you issue the following cmake command

cmake -D BUILD_ROOTDICT=0 -D ROOT_DIR=$ROOTSYS ..


and then issue the make command, does LCIO build successfully?
