>Description:
I configure and make gnats in a different directory from the source code directory.
I got a error when making the document.
The error message is like below:

echo "@set VERSION 4.0-beta1" > version.texi-t
mv version.texi-t version.texi
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/thinker/gnats/current/work/send-pr'
gmake[1]: Entering directory `/home/thinker/gnats/current/work/doc'
gmake[1]: *** No rule to make target `../../gnats/doc/version.texi', needed by `
gnats.info'.  Stop.
gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/thinker/gnats/current/work/doc'
gmake: *** [all-gnats] Error 2    

But this error will not happen when I build gnats in the directory where gnats source code located.
>How-To-Repeat:
To make a directory in the same level with gnats source directory.
mkdir work
cd work
../gnats/configure
gmake all info
>Fix:
Unknown
