Just run Configure.  When it pauses and prints "If you need to edit config.sh,
do it as a shell escape here:", take Configure up on the offer.  Type "! vi config.sh".
Now search for d_volatile.  Change the 'define' to 'undef', write, and quit.  Compile
away.  Configure takes care of all the other flags and magic incantations.
