--- Comment #1 from Gerald Pfeifer <gerald at pfeifer dot com> ---
I suggest moving to a newer minimum version of makeinfo.

For reference, here the last decades of releases:

6.0     September 26, 2013      
5.2     March 12, 2013  
5.1     February 16, 2013       
5.0     October 20, 2010        Major Change: The C-based makeinfo was replaced
by the Perl-based texi2any utility.
4.13    September 22, 2008      
4.12    May 2, 2008     
4.11    July 20, 2007   
4.10    February 18, 2007       
4.9     June 29, 2006   
4.8     January 3, 2005 
4.7     April 10, 2004

5.0 is 15 years old, which does not strike me as unreasonable.

What would be your recommendation? (Also, happy to raise a proposal 
on the gcc@ list.)
