Something somewhere tries to make a local path from an absolute one by prepending "./", which fails (predictably). Is the input readable at the original path? Not sure the error message from egrep has to do with it or not, but it must be in any case one of the processes started by texi2dvi (does not show up on my system, I only have calls to grep when I trace it, but one of the sub-processes might still use it). I think texi2dvi also invokes shell scripts, so any funny configuration in the environment, especially where path points to, could throw it off.
