You need to run make first.

Actually, src/tutorial/Makefile expects to *make* basics.sql from
basics.source.  That particular file doesn't really need any
substitutions, but some of its siblings do.

If there's a docs bug here, it's that the text doesn't explain about
building the tutorial examples.  I also kinda wonder if we should build
and install the tutorial files (presumably into $INSTROOT/share) by
default --- right now a standard build doesn't do that.  Thoughts?

I think that would be a good idea; witness the fact that I have gone 5
years without noticing that the make needed to be run.
