I downloaded version 0.96 using the link below
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/dia/0.96/dia-0.96.tar.bz2
I'm able to run configure, with out errors, using
./configure --prefix=/sw
I used the /sw prefix since I have a Fink installation.
Unfortunately the make failed with ...

The offending portion appears to be

This error appears to be in ./po/Makefile and is apparently occurring
on the line below

.po.gmo:
file=`echo $* | sed 's,.*/,,'`.gmo \
&& rm -f $$file && $(GMSGFMT) -o $$file $<

I had no problem with 0.95. However, the same error occurs for 0.96-
