Actually, this idea cross my mind after I wrote the other message. :)

I tested install-info with gzip'd info file and it didn't/couldn't
handle it.  So, what we should do, if we are going to add this into
bsd.port.mk, is to gzip the files after install-info.  (And maybe we
should introduce new variable NOINFOCOMPRESS like NOMANCOMPRESS.)

     Cheers,
Max
