make install erroneously fails since makeinfo is invoked unconditionally for
treelang.info as x$(BUILD_INFO) is not checked there as opposed to the other
info files.


gccint.info does check proper if BUILD_INFO was requested explicitely,
treelang.info does not; e.g.:


if [ x = xinfo ]; then \
        /usr/local/scratch/src/gcc-4.2/missing makeinfo --split-size=5000000
--s
plit-size=5000000 --no-split -I . -I ../../../src/gcc-4.2/gcc/doc \
                -I ../../../src/gcc-4.2/gcc/doc/include -o doc/gccint.info
../..
/../src/gcc-4.2/gcc/doc/gccint.texi; \
fi
rm -f /opt/gcc-4.2//info/gccint.info
if [ -f doc/gccint.info ]; then \
  for f in doc/gccint.info*; do \
    realfile=`echo $f | sed -e 's|.*/\([^/]*\)$|\1|'`; \

else true; fi
if /bin/sh -c 'install-info --version' >/dev/null 2>&1; then \
  if [ -f /opt/gcc-4.2//info/gccint.info ]; then \
    install-info --dir-file=/opt/gcc-4.2//info/dir
/opt/gcc-4.2//info/gccint.inf
o; \
  else true; fi; \

WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system.  You should only need it if
         you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
         indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.  The spurious
         call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
         DU, IRIX).  You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
         the `GNU make' package.  Grab either from any GNU archive site.
