Thanks for the report, I will soon push the attached patch to fix the
problem. Note that the patch also updates your name and e-mail adress

Subject: [PATCH] docs: avoid using colon character inside arguments of @pxref
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
Fixes automake bug#9753
* doc/automake.texi (VPATH Builds): Avoid using colon character
`:' inside arguments of @pxref, as this can cause problems in
the generated `.info' files, and such an usage will be explicitly
forbidden by future texinfo documentation.
* THANKS: Update.
