Text is a bit mangled here but I guess it comes from this snippet in Makefile

        echo "@set VERSION $(VERSION)") > vti.tmp
        @cmp -s vti.tmp $(srcdir)/doc/version.texi \
          || (echo "Updating $(srcdir)/doc/version.texi"; \
              cp vti.tmp $(srcdir)/doc/version.texi)
        -@rm -f vti.tmp
        @cp $(srcdir)/doc/version.texi $@

Again. it's not very clear why vti.tmp wouldn't exist as echo should create it.

We haven't seen this recently, maybe fixed?
