These happen because the command `unnumberedfootnote' was defined for
TeX, but not for other forms of output.  The easiest way to work
around this is to add these 3 lines

@ifnottex
@alias unnumberedfootnote = footnote
@end ifnottex

to the beginning of rms-essays.texi.

To fix these, add the missing *.txt files.  If you don't care about
the images, an empty file will do.

Add this

@ifnottex
@macro sp1
@sp 1
@end macro
@end ifnottex

to the beginning of rms-essays.texi.

These happen only in fs_for_freedom.texi because it uses invalid
syntax:

   @heading{Comparing the Two Terms}

But @heading should not use braces.  Solution: remove the braces.
