I will take responsibility for mucking up the instructions. When
I changed the --enable-extensions= line in the current instructions,
I put in the whitespace not knowing this didn't work.

Unfortunately, my build script has them all on one line so I never
encountered this issue. (moral - make your build scripts match what
is in the book for testing book instructions!)

Kind of a rock and a hard place here. We can't have instructions that
extend past about 71 characters, and it would be nice to have the
parameters lined up in the book's instructions. Unfortunately, it
appears that we cannot have it both ways.

I suppose we'll have to combine the parameters to as few lines as
possible (2 should be okay) and move the stuff after the backslash
to the left margin.

It'll look funny, but at least it will be cut-and-pasteable.
