Yes, but that is because you need the snapshot to build the
development version from the git repository! The snapshot itself
is already too old to build CRUNCH with. So, check out the
git repo of CHICKEN and do

  ./configure --prefix ... --chicken <chicken-executable-from-preliminary-tarball>
  make
  make install
  cd <crunch checkout>
  .../bin/chicken-install

cheers,
