[Bug classpath/27974] Build leaves lots of empty files in doc/

[roman at kennke dot org]

Ok, some more observations:
- The empty files obviously stem from the output of sed --version. See that
there is an empty file named 'sed' in there, and the remaining output are all
words from the copyright notice of GNU sed.
- I can trigger this from inside the doc dir with a simple make
- I configured my tree using:
./configure --with-escher=/home/roman/workspace/escher-0.2.3
--prefix=/home/roman --with-ecj --with-g
libj=both --with-vm=/home/roman/bin/jamvm --enable-Werror
--enable-local-sockets

- When invoking make inside the doc tree, it complains about a missing
makeinfo:
/home/roman/workspace/classpath/missing: line 46: makeinfo: command not found
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.

Installing texinfo make this bug disappear.
