This was a known problem which Kurt Hornik and I solved earlier today.
Short version: the (Debian testing Linux) machine which produces them
was updated to texinfo 5.1, and that is not compatible with R 3.0.1.
This lack of back-compatibility is really rather annoying, and if you
meet it, you need to use 3.0.1-patched.
