1) Why is the error ignored, making it almost impossible to determine that
something went wrong?
Because it shouldn't be a fatal error in a pre-release version, where we're
mostly interested in bash bugs.
2) Shouldn't the problem (that texinfo isn't installed on the system) be
caught
earlier in the process (i.e., during the "configure" step) ?
No, texinfo is not a dependency.
