Strange!  I guess the syntax has changed.

According to <URL:http://www.inp.nsk.su/~grozin/TeXmacs/>:

    If you are running the "unstable" distribution, you can get
    TeXmacs from "experimental" (by including the corresponding line
    in your /etc/apt/sources.list) which is rather up-to-date.
    Versions in "stable", "testing", and "unstable" are way too old.
    Unfortunately, the package is orphaned. Any volunteers?

    Ubuntu is based on Debian "unstable", and contains TeXmacs.  You
    can (probably) install an up-to-date TeXmacs from Debian
    "experimental".

Might be worth trying that before compiling it yourself.  Maybe you
should compile 1.0.6.10 before jumping to CVS?  No point in
multiplying risks!
