Which one is from what date?

There's certainly some kind of problem, in that your makefile is not
updated.  It still says

    # The makeinfo program is part of the Texinfo distribution.
    MAKEINFO = makeinfo --force

while makefile.w32-in says

    # The makeinfo program is part of the Texinfo distribution.
    MAKEINFO = makeinfo --force -I$(emacsdir)

Either something in nt/configure.bat doesn't work, or you didn't run
it correctly.  Please remove the "@echo off" line from configure.bat
and see what happens around this part:

    copy /b config.settings+%MAKECMD%.defs+..\doc\misc\makefile.w32-in 
..\doc\misc\makefile
