It means that you're linking to an id that doesn't exist. You've got
'[link _Tutorial_ Tutorial]' but nothing with the id '_Tutorial_'.
It's probably should be '[link gil.io.tutorial Tutorial]'.

I'd also suggest you use sections or anchors for anything you want to
link to, so that you can specify the id explicitly as id generation is
a bit odd at times. Quickbook 1.6 will improve matters and be able to
have explicit ids on headers, but that won't be stable (or documented)
for a while.
