Yes, I could have read the file README.git after getting the code from git - 
perhaps it is obvious that this is the file to read, well it was not obvious to 
me.

 Subject: Re: ./configure Make sources runs, but compiled make segfaults - is 
this a bug?
   
To generate the configure script (usually something done just before
release), I think you run
  autoreconf -i
You may need to install the autoconf and autopoint packages for that to succeed.
Then, after running configure, do
  make update
  make
You may need to install the package texinfo for that to succeed.
