How's this?
Incidentally I get an error from makeinfo when building install.info:
cd ../../gcc/gcc && makeinfo -I doc -I doc/include -o doc/gccinstall.info doc/install.texi
doc/install.texi:267: warning: Info cannot handle `:' in index entry `Installing GCC: Configuration'.
doc/install.texi:918: warning: Info cannot handle `:' in index entry `Installing GCC: Building'.
doc/install.texi:1158: warning: Info cannot handle `:' in index entry `Installing GCC: Testing'.
doc/install.texi:1428: warning: Info cannot handle `:' in index entry `Installing GCC: Binaries'.
Maybe this is because I have an old version of info.
(Though I do remember this restriction from way back.)
