Running `make info dvi' after a git pull just now:
make info dvi
cd doc && make info && make mostlyclean
make[1]: Entering directory `/home/neil/SW/gnulib/doc'

makeinfo: Removing output file `/home/neil/SW/gnulib/doc/gnulib.info' due to
errors; use --force to preserve.
make[1]: *** [gnulib.info] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/neil/SW/gnulib/doc'
make: *** [info] Error 2
This appears to be fixed by the attached patch.
(My makeinfo is version 4.11, in case that's relevant.)
Regards,
Neil

The tool does not generate DEF files directly, so its output needs to
be post processed manually:
