echo "2.073.2" > verstr.h

I see John Colvin has already filed a bug report (issue 17165) 
addressing this. Apparently the missing file is available on 
GitHub.

I copied the missing file John referenced to my src/dmd file but 
this did not have any effect.

I've created a bug report (17253) addressing this problem.

 verstring is created automatically

I think the problem is a failure in the process of creating 
verstring.

The missing file is "dmd/res/default_ddoc_theme/ddoc"
