You don't specify which version of Gnucash you are trying to compile, so
I'm going to assume CVS...please correct if otherwise.

version.texi should be created by automake, which is run by
/home/mike/gnucash/autogen.sh.  Did you run autogen.sh after checking
out the source?  If so, try it again; otherwise, try it for the first
time. ;)

just
./autogen.sh

but you can also feed ./configure options to autogen.sh, or just re-run
configure again with whatever options you need.
