See below about this...

I'm not sure this is necessary.

If you read README.cvs, you will notice that you should not run
configure by hand when building from CVS.  You should provide all your
configure options to autogen.sh.  The reason the version.texi didn't
exist is because you failed to configure with --enable-maintainer-mode
(which is automatically added by autogen.sh).

This looks like libintl.a didn't get properly added to
libgncmod-engine.  Check your config.log to make sure it was actually
able to find libintl.
