No, it's related to this section from etc/PROBLEMS:

    * Self documentation messages are garbled.

    This means that the file `etc/DOC-...' doesn't properly correspond
    with the Emacs executable.  Redumping Emacs and then installing the
    corresponding pair of files should fix the problem.

I'm afraid I don't know how this section works, just that if you
recompile Emacs without X but use the DOC from the X version, the
messages are garbled.  The RH patches I looked at way back when
referenced a DOC and a DOC-X11, depending on how it was compiled
(iirc).
