This looks good, but it doesn't build here: it fails because 'makeinfo'
is not available.

WARNING: `makeinfo' is missing on your system.  You should only need it if
         you modified a `.texi' or `.texinfo' file, or any other file
         indirectly affecting the aspect of the manual.  The spurious
         call might also be the consequence of using a buggy `make' (AIX,
         DU, IRIX).  You might want to install the `Texinfo' package or
         the `GNU make' package.  Grab either from any GNU archive site.
[...]
make[2]: *** [all] Error 2
make[1]: *** [/home/test/outputs/arc/build/host-binutils-2.19-arc/.stamp_built] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2

makeinfo is no longer a mandatory dependency of Buildroot, and
therefore we've removed it from our autobuilder chroots. binutils 2.22
builds fine without it, it seems like binutils 2.19 will need a few
more tricks.
