I see this even with an installed automake. It appears that
'texi-vers.am' doesn't have the CONFIGURE_AC transform before being
inserted into Makefile.in. From automake.in, in &handle_texinfo,
around line 2277
$output_rules .=
&file_contents_with_transform
('s/\@TEXI\@/' . $info_cursor . '/g; '
. 's/\@VTI\@/' . $vti . '/g; '
. 's/\@VTEXI\@/' . $vtexi . '/g;'
. 's,\@MDDIR\@,' . $conf_pat . ',g;',
'texi-vers');
Note the lack of the @CONFIGURE_AC@ transform.
