>Description:
	While installing ispell via pkgsrc, I encountered:

My guess is that this error is actually from texinfo, but I havn't gone digging to see if that's true or not.  I'm hoping this is more an issue with the pkg stuff than with texinfo, although that might be wrong.


>How-To-Repeat:
	On a NetBSD 1.4/i386 box:
     	cd pkgsrc/textproc/ispell
	make install

	watch it get upset after it's mostly done.

>Fix:
	Dunno.
