This is my afternoon for compile errors.
This time, it is binutils which failed with :

config.status: executing default commands
make[3]: Leaving directory `/Files/Compile/Sources/binutils-2.18/_build/bfd/po'
make[3]: Entering directory `/Files/Compile/Sources/binutils-2.18/_build/bfd/po'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `info'.

make[1]: Leaving directory `/Files/Compile/Sources/binutils-2.18/_build'
make: *** [all] Error 2
Compile: Build process failed.


Before this output, there is an error, but it don't seem to stop to process.
This error is :
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[3]: *** [bfd.info] Error 1


Thanks for your help,

Thomas
