Eric,
I've been getting this error lately from git (happening during `make`):
make[1]: *** No rule to make target `todo.pl', needed by `todo.html.in'. Stop.
make: *** [distdir] Error 1
I haven't taken any time to look at it, but its caused by the
documentation task, obviously. I've been getting around this during
compile time with just doing "make install" which skips the doc task.
This is preventing me from testing my `make dist` tarball.

Not ringing any bells for me.
What if you do:
./autogen.sh
make
make dist
then expand that tarball to another directory, run ./configure and make, and
compare the git tree with the tarball you just created? Also, how does the
snapshot compare to your tarball?
Are you using git to create the snapshots (in which case I have no idea how
the .gnulib submodule is being handled, if at all), or are they made from
some 'make dist' cron job?
