You cannot run a sole .txh file through `makeinfo', it won't work.  
TRhese files are fragments of the manual, and only make sense to 
`makeinfo' when presented to it concatenated together (and with some 
preprocessing that takes care of the likes of @portability).  You 
must either read the Texinfo sources (the *.txh files themselves)--which 
is not too hard, since it's almost plain text--or download the whole CVS 
source tree and type "make" in its top-level src/ directory, which will 
generate a new libc.info file for you.
