So a Makefile (or equivalent) that avoids install-info just on
the Hurd actually has to do *more* work to detect whether to
run install-info.
You're mixing up two different things. The `install' target would
be what runs install-info. Unpacking a package for the Hurd won't
run the `install' target, or anything in the Makefile. No package
installation system runs the source package makefile.
Somehow you must create the package, and this is where you run `make
install', this installs usually a dir file, that has then to be
removed by hand since it isn't needed on GNU. I suppose that untill a
`make package' (or similar) target is avaiable, we will just have to
remove such files "manually" (the GNU system creator does this, so it
isn't really a problem).
