>Description:
When building the tools, toolchain/gcc has a dependency upon makeinfo to build
the .info files. If the "text" base package is not installed, then the compile
will fail even though we are already building the texinfo package. To solve this,
we need to move texinfo up in the build process and then export MAKEINFO into
the environment for all followup modules.

>How-To-Repeat:
mv /usr/bin/makeinfo /usr/bin/makeinfo-
./build.sh -m i386 -r -T${TOOLDIR} -t

watch the build fail because it cannot execute makeinfo.

>Fix:

Apply following patch in tools/. The reason for the ${MODULE} check is 
so that we don't override MAKEINFO during the texinfo build.

 tools/toolchain depends upon a system installed makeinfo rather than the tools version.
