Comment (by kencu):

 Setting MAKEINFO=missing in the build environment on gcc46 does seem to
 get around this texinfo problem, even with the current texinfo installed.
 gcc takes forever to build so it's still running, but it's nicely skipping
 over the texinfo errors now and looks like it will finish (10.5 PPC /
 gcc46). I'll let you know about ultimate success, and as time goes by,
 I'll try the other gcc4.x versions to see if it works there too.

 of course you now have to peg isl at the last version to build gcc46 -- ah
 well.
