I thought I had kept the message that had the solution to this, but apparently I tossed it.
At any rate, someone replied and suggested installing emacs without tm. That worked. I went into dselect/select and searched for tm (/tm twice) and marked tm to be purged. Then at dselect's main screen I chose (5) Remove unwanted software; after tm was removed I chose (4) Config and emacs20 configured properly this time. I now have a working emacs20. To whomever provided this answer, thanks!
