gst-browser failure on debian 9

using the standard package from debian/testing repos - the process starts
and does not crash but no window is created

$ gst-blox
bash: gst-blox: command not found


----------------
when compiled per the developer's guide at
http://smalltalk.gnu.org/wiki/hackers-guide-working-build-tree from the
current upstream source http://git.savannah.gnu.org/r/smalltalk.git - the
make check tests pass but gst-browser and gst-blox exit immediately

$ ./configure --prefix=`pwd`/dist
....

$ make
....

$ make check
....
133 tests behaved as expected.
2 tests were skipped.

the REPL appears to be working correctly in both cases
