Hi, There!

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. make[3]: *** [bfd.info] Error 1 make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/ports/ckcore/binutils-2.18/work/src/build/bfd/doc' ... ...because binutils it doesn't properly check for the two digit 4.xx version number of makeinfo (which is part of texinfo).
