 * The problem is the texinfo file included in fftw, which requires the 
 * latest texinfo (i.e. makeinfo) package. Alas in 3.0-RELEASE only 
 * version 3.9 is included. How do we proceed? Is the 
 * /usr/src/contrib/texinfo part updated? Should I add a texinfo-3.12 
 * port, too????

You can edit the .info file directly if all you need to do is to add
the dir entry.

===
INFO-DIR-SECTION The Emacs editor and associated tools
START-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
* Emacs: (emacs).               The extensible self-documenting text editor.
END-INFO-DIR-ENTRY
===

 * Without a functional makeinfo (@uref macro is required) I can't 
 * update the /usr/local/info/dir file in the way recommended by a port!

Of course, if you want to upgrade contrib/texinfo, that is fine for us
too. :)
