WARNING: `makeinfo’ is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified a `.texi’ or `.texinfo’ file, or any other file
indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual. The spurious
call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make’ (AIX,
DU, IRIX). You might want to install the `Texinfo’ package or
the `GNU make’ package. Grab either from any GNU archive site.
