I found the problem (I think). See below:
touch bashref.dvi builtins.pdf bashref.pdf bashref.html bash.pdf bashref.info bash.info builtins.0 rbash.0
So, how to fix this?
See above.
Note: I think I have done this successfully in the past (with bash "make install", so I assume the "makeinfo" thing is new.
It's not. You probably did it with a release version, not a pre-release
version.
Non-release versions of bash ship with formatted documentation that may or
may not be up-to-date; the announcement contains
"This tar file includes the formatted documentation (you should be able to
generate updated versions yourself)."
Release versions of bash always contain up-to-date versions of the
formatted documentation so you don't need to build it yourself.
