Hi,
I got the following error when I tried to build automake on a freshly
installed 1.6.2 RC4 system:
Making all in doc

This is not reproducable on -current, so I worked around it by copying
makeinfo(1) from -current to 1.6.x. Does that mean texinfo should be
pulled up to netbsd-1-6 branch? Since we're expecting release of 1.6.2
real soon now, that might be too late...
