There are several errors in val.log but they mostly the same:

The error comes from the following line in groff.texi:
@Defesc {\\", , , }
which is earlier defined as
@macro Defesc{name, delimI, arg, delimII}
@deffn Escape @t{\name\\delimI\}@Var{\arg\}@t{\delimII\}
@esindex \name\
@c
@end macro
Indeed, the minimal input:
\input texinfo
@macro Defesc{name, delimI, arg, delimII}
@deffn Escape @t{\name\\delimI\}@Var{\arg\}@t{\delimII\}
@esindex \name\
@c
@end macro
@Defesc {\\", , , }
@bye
also gives a segfault.
