Hi Jeff,
I do the exact same steps on a brand new box and it works.

#define WAL_DEBUG 4
./configure --without-readline --without-zlib CPPFLAGS='-DWAL_DEBUG'
Either one of those works for me.
I don't see anything special log to the log file.
open running pgbench -i, I see a lot of things like this in the log, once I set wal_debug:
STATEMENT: alter table pgbench_accounts add primary key (aid)
LOG: INSERT @ 0/18BEDC0: prev 0/18BED78; xid 1838; len 34: Btree - insert: rel 1663/16384/12678; tid 1/8

If I include literally "wal_debug=number", upon start up I get the self-explanatory error:
LOG: parameter "wal_debug" requires a Boolean value
FATAL: configuration file "/tmp/data/postgresql.conf" contains errors
If I replace "number" with a valid true value ("true", "on", "1"), then I get the above-reported WAL debugging log messages.
Cheers,
Jeff
