Okay, I copied the most recent texinfo.tex to where it will be found,
and it gets further, but then breaks again. I made sure to delete any
generated files, and ran "make" in the texindex directory. Output
below. ti.pdf does exist after this, though.

./jrtangle ti.twjr || rm -f texindex.awk
./jrweave ti.twjr >ti.texi || rm -f ti.texi
texi2dvi --pdf --build-dir=ti.t2p -o ti.pdf ti.texi
