Hi Ken,

Thanks for this update.

This seems to break building the cygwin documentation:

Poking around a bit, under the hood this is invoking makeinfo, and it 
seems that can't read from a pipeline anymore:

> $ echo foo | makeinfo
> could not open -: No such file or directory

Downgrading to 6.7, I can build again, and:

> $ echo foo | makeinfo
> -: warning: document without nodes

Is this an intentional upstream change?
