Sorry, looks like there is something "magic" in glibc source, and that it is
better to use "MAKEINFO=:". See manual/Makefile in glibc source tree:
-----
ifneq ($(strip $(MAKEINFO)),:)
info: $(objpfx)libc.info
endif
[...]
ifneq ($(PERL),no)
ifneq ($(strip $(MAKEINFO)),:)
install: $(inst_infodir)/libc.info
@if $(SHELL) -c '$(INSTALL_INFO) --version' >/dev/null 2>&1; then \
test -f $(inst_infodir)/dir || $(INSTALL_DATA) dir $(inst_infodir);\
$(INSTALL_INFO) --info-dir=$(inst_infodir) #wrapped by mailer
$(inst_infodir)/libc.info;\
else : ; fi
endif
endif
