>Description:

The port devel/autoconf262 doesn't build using the system texinfo on FreeBSD
5.x.  The build fails as follows:

gmake[2]: Entering directory `/usr/ports/devel/autoconf262/work/autoconf-2.62/doc'

	am__cwd=`pwd` && cd . && \
	rm -rf $backupdir && mkdir $backupdir && \

	  done; \
	else :; fi && \

	  cd .; \
	else \
	  rc=$?; \
	  cd . && \
	  $restore $backupdir/* `echo "./autoconf-2.62.info" | sed 's|[^/]*$||'`; \

	rm -rf $backupdir; exit $rc

makeinfo: Removing output file `autoconf-2.62.info' due to errors; use --force to preserve.

>How-To-Repeat:

On FreeBSD 5.x:

portinstall devel/autoconf262

>Fix:

The following patch fixes the problem, by using the version of makeinfo from
the print/texinfo port on FreeBSD 5.x.

See also PRs ports/106379 and ports/106385, which fixed the same problem for
m4 and automake respectively.
