I think I have found what is needed to reproduce the error.

I tried with ./configure --with-readline=3Dgnu, and get the "Exec"=20
warning, the 'make' error, and no .tex nor .eps files generated.
However, with ./configure (i.e. with the builtin readline), I get the=20
"Exec" warning but the .tex and .eps files _are_ generated.
