+Subject: [PATCH] Docs: Prevent build failures when "makeinfo" is missing
+
+Build failed when "makeinfo" was missing on the build host.
+This was happenning because "makeinfo" is required to build .info targets
+and make exited with error. But missing "makeinfo" only stops us from
+building docs ("missing" script already throws a warning on that regard).
+Let's continue to build other targets.
+
+Now exit code of the script called "missing" is checked.
+The value 127 means that "makeinfo" is not available on the build host.
+
+So when such value occurs 0 is returned to the top level makefile.
+Documentation is not being built but further build of binutils continues.
