Perhaps this became visible with the changed default behaviour
(read-eta was not a my idea):

* rename EXP_READPROGRESS ifdef to USE_READPROGRESS -TD
* change a few configure script defaults to "enable":  source-cache, prettysrc
  and read-eta.  Also change default for read-eta configuration flag to "Show
  KB/Sec" (requests by LP, Frederic L W Meunier) -TD
