APPROVE COMMIT 21.5

From just reading the patch, it looks reasonable, not that I
understand how
the autotools actually work.
This patch skips building info files if makeinfo 4.12 or newer is not
available. See the xemacs-beta thread with subject "Latest 21.5
updates: texinfo breaks in compiling" for more information. If this
doesn't fix info building all the way, throw rocks at me until I fix
it the rest of the way.
The attached patch is a little different from the version posted to
xemacs-beta, and is the version of the patch I am actually committing.

OK. I'll take care of the Installation message I suggested later this
week.

Oh, sorry, I didn't see your message suggesting that until this morning.

No apology needed, things cross in the mail. It's just that I may as
well do this one because it should be coordinated with the actual
distribution tarballs.

Link to docs on the web could be good too. I must confess I don't know
if we provide any but it would be a good alternative.

I don't understand what you're suggesting.

OK. I'll elaborate.
If I got you correctly, you proposed in the case of a broken texinfo
tool chain, that we supply info on how to get to a prebuild version of
the info-files to drop into the local installation. That is fine.
I suggest we also say that the info files are available online and
point to xemacs.org.

Ah, OK. This is what I will do then (it will take some time because I
need to fix my build scripts to make the additional tarballs).
