This will occur on AIX 7.1 as well based on the Gnulib manual [1]:
This header file is not self-contained—it requires <string.h> before
FD_ZERO can be used—on some platforms: AIX 7.1, Solaris 11.4.
The 'sys_select-h' module fixes it. But I think Texinfo tries to avoid
the header modules because of them not working well with libperl, IIRC.
