In the packages I build I include the original texinfo sources.

I seem to have had some trouble recently getting texi2dvi's include option to
work, so you may have to copy some files around, to get the gdb texinfo
sources to build.

E.g. in gdb/doc:

    texi2dvi -I ../mi -I../../../readline/doc

(This is off the top of my head, so the paths may be wrong.) texi2dvi would
ask me for the paths to files which it should have found in the include paths.
So I typed in the relative paths for the files and still it could not find
them. Has anyone else seen this problem? In the end I just copied all the
files from ../mi and ../../../readline/doc into gdb/doc and removed them after
I had built the .dvi file.

Bye, Rich =]
