Can you send a patch?

running "makeinfo --html" from the lispref directory in the Emacs

Hmm, this is strange, very strange. Do you have some experience with
locales? What could be wrong with this function:
char *
getdocumenttext (const char *msgid)
{
char *save_locale;
char *s;
save_locale = setlocale(LC_ALL, NULL);
setlocale(LC_ALL, interface_language);
s = gettext(msgid);
setlocale(LC_ALL, save_locale);
return(s);
}
The libc info page for setlocale tells you what's wrong with it:
The string returned by `setlocale' can be overwritten by subsequent
calls, so you should make a copy of the string (*note Copying and
Concatenation::) if you want to save it past any further calls to
`setlocale'. (The standard library is guaranteed never to call
`setlocale' itself.)
With that information, it's easy to correct your getdocumenttext
function:
char *
getdocumenttext (const char *msgid)
{
char *old_locale, *save_locale;
char *s;
old_locale = setlocale(LC_ALL, NULL);
save_locale = strdup (old_locale);
setlocale(LC_ALL, interface_language);
s = gettext(msgid);
setlocale(LC_ALL, save_locale);
return(s);
}
With that, I got makeinfo's error messages in German. :-)
Best wishes,
