description:
If the package doesn't ask makeinfo, create a broken makeinfo tool
that will return non-zero if invoked as "makeinfo --version", but will
touch the output file if invoked blindly.  This should workaround some
stupidity in the way that automake-generated Makefiles try to determine
when and how to rebuild info files.
