Unfortunately, under my machine (G3/266 DT) this version works even more
poorly than the one I was using before. The startup beeps are now more like
startup hisses, and wavs (whether 8-bit or 16) sound like a bunch of
hissing. To compile it I just did a vanilla ./configure; make; make install
which seemed to be the right thing to do.
