What I posted is essentially the equivalent of that for csh-based shells
(I use tcsh) but just in case, I tried the other formulation in bash,
with the same results.

I had already tried that (sorry, forgot to mention it), and it gave me
the results I mentioned.  This time, I ran 'make clean', then reran
'./configure --enable-debug=yes', then make.  Still getting the above
message when I try to run in a debugger.

Find how to make it?  That's certainly how I found out it was supposed
to exist, but run_dia.sh doesn't really give any indication of how to
build it.
