Without knowing the spec file it is hard to tell but I think that you
didn't run autogen.sh shipped with the dovecot-pigeonhole sources,
because "./configure: No such file or directory error" is kind of
explicit about what went wrong.
So I bet you simply need to run the 'autogen.sh' script shipped with
the pigeonhole sources, to get a configure script generated.
Needless to say that this has to be done before actually calling
configure, so most probably calling autogen.sh right after the "pushd
dovecot-2.2-pigeonhole-0.3.4" might be a good idea ;)

Cheers,
Chris
