I don't think so. The binary release doesn't suffer from this
inconvenience nor does it utilize the hacked script. Something else is
wrong. Back on my older system I ran the binary trying to figure out
what they did differently. I also queried this list. What works for me
seemed to be building a binary distribution. I don't know if the
configure switches had/have much to do with it. (NOTE: I do still have
the blank query prompt come up from time to time. Haven't sorted that,
yet.)
