Ok, I see, whoever changed tumble as found on github forgot to 
change all version numbers, to update the README and many things more :-(

But anyway, it compiles happily with two modifications in tumble_pbm.c:
- add the following line in front of the first include statement:
#define HAVE_BOOL
- change the following line from
#include <netpbm/pbm.h>
   to
#include <pbm.h>

# ./tumble
fatal error: either a control file or an output file (but not both) must 
be specified

tumble version 0.35 - Copyright 2001-2003 Eric Smith <eric at brouhaha.com>
