Jordan,

Will it ruffle too many feathers if we take /usr/share/info/dir out of
infodist and put it in bindist?  Or even better, put a skeleton
version (no entries, just headers) in bindist.

Many people are stumbling on this when they install ports that require
info dir entries to be installed.  I can't think of any other way to
solve this.  (We surely don't want a "info-dir" port just for this
purpose!)
