Since this is about the CVS version of Emacs, bug reports should be sent 
to emacs-pretest-bug@gnu.org.  ("M-x report-emacs-bug RET" will do that 
automatically for you.)

No, this is not a bug.  I'm guessing that you invoked makeinfo manually 
to produce the Info output, and used the --output option to tell makeinfo 
the name of the output file.  In the Emacs sources, lispintro/Makefile.in 
takes care of putting the output into info/eintr, so that the menu item 
in the top-level DIR menu works.
