Comment (by ylluminate):

 I think I'm having the same problem here:

 I guess the real problem is that for some reason the version of `zsh`
 that's installed via MacPorts isn't compatible with this version of
 `zshdb` for some reason:

 {{{
 :info:configure checking Checking whether /opt/local/bin/zsh is compatible
 with zshdb... Looks like you don't have funcfiletrace.
 :info:configure We need a zsh new enough which has that.
 :info:configure no dice :-(
 :info:configure configure: error: You might want to retry with another zsh
 using the --with-zsh option.
 }}}

 Anyone have any idea of what's going on?  Again, I'm running the MacPorts
 `zsh`:
 {{{
 $ zsh --version
 zsh 5.7.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin18.2.0)

 $ port info zsh
 zsh @5.7.1 (shells)
 Variants:             universal
 ...

 $ port search zsh
 zsh @5.7.1 (shells)
     The Z shell

 zshdb @0.92 (devel)
     GDB-like debugger for zsh scripts.
 }}}
