Yes.

No, I don't have a dos.m4 file anywhere in the source or build trees
now.

Did you do git pull in the gnulib directory then run make
maintainer-clean?  If so, I think the problem could have been that
when you updated the gnulib directory, the dos.m4 file was removed,
then when you ran make maintainer-clean, there were changes that
required updating Makefiles, but that failed because there were
missing files.  Maybe the problem would have been avoided if you did
the maintainer-clean step before updating.
