Or, emacs can do the job, if you have it.  (And what are you making?
I've always run into this building emacs-related packages, so I'm
guessing you have it, but perhaps it shows up far afield.)

The makefile you're using should have an entry like

	MAKEINFO      = makeinfo   

and perhaps also 

	EMACS = emacs 

which you could add, if not.  

Change the first to 

	MAKEINFO      = $(EMACS) -batch -q -f batch-texinfo-format

and it will run emacs in batch (non-interactive) mode to do the job.

Does that fit?
