The problem is that new install-info(1) will (correctly) refuse to install
file FOO with BAR entry if BAR entry already exists for another file FOO2
in /usr/share/info/dir file.
In this particular case, the problem is observed because till 1999/01/15
we had src/contrib/texinfo/makeinfo/makeinfo.texi (with entry=makeinfo,
file=makeinfo), and starting from that date we have
src/contrib/texinfo/doc/texinfo.txi with entry=makeinfo, file=texinfo.
The correct fix will be to re-initialize ${DESTDIR}/usr/share/info/dir at
the early stage of installworld.
I've just committed the fix (src/share/Makefile, src/share/info/Makefile).
