This only matters when building from SVN.  I say we should just require
makeinfo
and forget about the problem.

As far as I can tell, the BUILD_INFO conditional can not easily be employed as
the info, dvi and pdf targets are generated by automake. The `missing` program
that is run instead should step into the breach. It does, but:

gcc/missing, line 300-303:
# If the file does not exist, the user really needs makeinfo;
# let's fail without touching anything.
test -f $file || exit 1
touch $file

Thus, two options present themself: ditch automake generated targets, do it
manually as everywhere else or tweak the Makefile.am to touch libgomp.info
before invoking `missing makeinfo`. 

Preferences?

Sounds a good plan.

The only other place that generates info files is gcc subdir and there it uses
BUILD_INFO conditional, if makeinfo is not present or is too old, it simply
doesn't build the documentation.  Perhaps libgomp could do the same.

>From http://gcc.gnu.org/install/prerequisites.html
Texinfo version 4.4 (or later)
Necessary to build GCC documentation during development because the
generated output files are not included in the SVN repository. They are
included in releases. 


h, now building documentation != building gcc, I think
