I managed to reproduce this failure by exporting $MAKEINFO to the
absolute path of a working makeinfo program before running the test.
The attached patch (pushed to master) fixes the issue.
Thanks,

Subject: [PATCH] tests: fix spurious failure due to exported MAKEINFO
* tests/txinfo30.test: Unset variable MAKEINFO, as its content could
take precedence over our faked makeinfo script and cause a spurious
failure. Reported as part of automake bug#10866. Add trailing ':'
command since we are at it.
