Binutils 2.17 - 2.18 configure script requires texinfo 4.4 or
higher to be installed. The version checking code worked for 4.4
- 4.9 and broke with the latest texinfo 4.11:
if ${MAKEINFO} --version \
| egrep 'texinfo[^0-9]*([1-3][0-9]|4\.[4-9]|[5-9])' >/dev/null 2>&1; then
:
else
MAKEINFO="$MISSING makeinfo"
fi
The search pattern could be changed to
egrep 'texinfo[^0-9]*([1-3][0-9]|4\.([4-9]|[1-9][0-9])|[5-9])'
to allow two-digit 4.xx subversions.

Alex.
