I think he's saying the behavior of Texinfo 5's 'makeinfo --help'
depends on the name used to invoke makeinfo (which is not following the
GNU Coding Standards, by the way -- Karl, should I file a Texinfo bug
report or will this email suffice?), and this means Emacs's 'configure'
script shouldn't care what that part of the output looks like. I
installed a patch along those lines as Emacs trunk bzr 117943.
