Have up to date Autoconf and Automake installed.

  cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/libtool co libtool
  cd libtool
  reconfdirs=". libltdl" ./bootstrap
  cd ..
  mkdir build
  cd build
  ../libtool/configure -C
  make dvi
  test -f libtool.dvi

make calls

  TEXINPUTS="../libtool/libltdl/config:$TEXINPUTS" \
  MAKEINFO='/bin/sh /tmp/libtool/libltdl/config/missing --run makeinfo   -I doc 
-I ../libtool/doc' \
  texi2dvi -o doc/libtool.dvi `test -f 'doc/libtool.texi' || echo 
'../libtool/'`doc/libtool.texi

If I then
  rm libtool.dvi doc/libtool.dvi
  make dvi

then libtool.dvi is not created.  But a `make clean dvi' will do the
trick again.

BTW, my the bug seems older than I first mentioned, I could reproduce
this with "texi2dvi (GNU Texinfo 4.8) 1.34", too.

Thanks,
Ralf
