Is there something other than `--debug=no' to set in configure?  I
tested both with and without that flag, and the differences were
fairly minor.

The only other-than-new-source-code thing the 19.15/20.0 betas have in
common different from 19.14 is that I'm running them in place, but
19.14 is installed.

That would be nice.
