Well, I saw it before but forgot to mention. After that I skipped building
info files. Today I editted gdb/doc/Makefile and also built these files.

Well, I'll try it when I'll build it next time.
Maybe I also check building under Linux sometime like:
./configure --build=i386-slackware-gnu \
--host=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp \
--target=i586-pc-msdosdjgpp \
--prefix=/dev/env/DJDIR \
--with-included-gettext
make
I think it should build DJGPP binaries without problems now from original
sources (only problem for me is that it's hard to use such build for
RHIDE)
