>Description:
	The Makefile in the fastjar directory now uses the --split-size 
	option, but this is not available in non-modern version of makeinfo.
	Either the option should not be used, or configure should check for
	a version of makeinfo that has this capability.
	
>How-To-Repeat:
	Bootstrap gcc on a machine with an old version of makeinfo (eg 4.0)
	
>Fix:
	Copy the code from gcc/configure.in into fastjar/configure.in that
	checks the version of makeinfo.
