    No, I'm saying the opposite. I started out, offering a patch that adds
    "info" as a useable make target to the Windows port, for the first time
    pretty precise a year ago...

    All I want is a working "info" make target.

That would certainly be an improvement.  If it is really hard to do
this 100% right, it would be better to make this work in some cases
than let it work in none.
