Yes, because the one provided with MSYS is from texinfo 4.3, which
GCC finds too old. Apparently, MSYS-1.0.11 will come with texinfo

I'm in the same boat here, msys-1.0.10, texinfo 4.3.
Is it the case that if you were to install texinfo 4.11, then it would
build? If so, I think we should just add a release note that you can't
build the documentation with the standard installation of MinGW due to
this issue, and, perhaps, automatically disable building it on MinGW
systems.
Or, is it the case that the patch to use abs_srcdir means that no matter
what Texinfo you have, it's not going to work on MinGW?
