Glenn fixed that soon after this, but since you asked: the plan was to
generate emacsver.texi from emacsver.texi.in.  However, the Windows
port's Makefiles were not adapted to the change, so there was no
emacsver.texi by the time makeinfo was invoked, and that triggered all
the error messages.

Again, this problem is long gone now.
