texinfo 4.8 is the minimum version. 4.13 should be fine.

Chrooting is some way down the road. Once you chroot the /bin/sh of
your host system is no longer relevant. It is possible to
compile the chapter 5 tools with /bin/sh => dash but I wouldn't
recommend it as it requires some deviating from the book. 
Keep it simple. As root:

ln -sf bash /bin/sh
