>Environment:

An existing FreeBSD (2.2.7) system during the "make buildworld" in
order to upgrade to -current.

>Description:

When the INFODIR variable is set, "make buildworld" fails.
This is the same problem as desribed in PR# 6138. It has
been solved by removing share/info from build-tools in
/usr/src/Makefile. This was done for -STABLE in version
1.109.2.28 and for -current in version 1.176 by bde.

However, I assume during the E-day transition this bug
was reintroduced in Makefile.inc1. Now we find it here
in the lib-tools: target.

>How-To-Repeat:

set INFODIR to anything and make buildworld with -current
sources.


>Fix:
	
Maybe bde's commit log message is still valid and we can remove
/share/info from lib-tools: simply...

------------------------ snip ------------------------------

1.176 Sun May 10 16:51:07 1998 UTC by bde 
Diffs to 1.175 

Removed share/info from build-tools.  It should never have been there,
and became redundant when it was put in SUBDIR, and became bogus when
WORLDTMP was introduced, and became broken when INFODIR was introduced.
