Oh, I remember seeing the Git for windows installer asking about
system-wide newline settings and I thought "who the hell might be
choosing something other than refraining from any mangling" and "who
the hell decided that sane default is to do some automagic
translation"...

Yes, this one is worth considering.

By works you mean makeinfo doesn't complain or you get fully matching
Info and PDF outputs? Do you know what is the correct way to deal with
the issue? Probably it's a bug in makeinfo, do you consider reporting
it upstream?

When building openocd with MSYS2, the build process fails with following
message:
~~~
make[2]: Nothing to be done for 'install-exec-am'.
restore=: && backupdir=".am$$" && \
am__cwd=`pwd` && CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && \

After some search on the internet I found this bug report:
http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?40277
I tried the proposed solution and replaced the last @ with @@ (see attached
patch) and the build works without errors.
My MSYS2 installation use following makeinfo version:
makeinfo --version
texi2any (GNU texinfo) 6.0
