Re: error at compiling the "make" command for binutils' compilation

Actually, this is not true.  The problem is that the package has
incorrect contents.  A properly-constructed distribution tarball will
NOT require extra tools like makeinfo.

If you want to avoid the need for makeinfo, you can run this after you
unpack binutils:

        touch binutils-2.18/bfd/doc/bfd.info

Now you won't get this error anymore.

(FYI, the error is that somehow the bfd/doc/elf.texi file is newer than
the .info file in the tarball, which should not be).
