The problem is that NO_INFO controls more than just the info docs nowadays,
it also controls the installation of the info tools. The installworld
part of make release that populates the chroot area, use NO_INFO as a speed
optimization. The fix is to remove NO_INFO from the installworld line in
release/Makefile. I'll get to it within a day or so.
