You have too old a makeinfo version installed; using "make info" directly
bypasses the configure checks that stop this causing a problem in "make
bootstrap". You need at least makeinfo 4.1, and within the next week I'll
be posting a proposal to increase the requirement (at least on mainline)
to 4.2 so the @copying feature can be used (see the Texinfo 4.2 release
notes); the latest release is 4.3.
