With ports texinfo installed (and ahead in $PATH), build fails: --- cvs.info --- /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:114: @sp missing argument /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:116: @sp missing argument /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:12756: warning: node next `commit files' in menu `taginfo' and in sectioning `rcsinfo' differ /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:13316: warning: node next `rcsinfo' in menu `cvsignore' and in sectioning `taginfo' differ /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:13316: warning: node prev `rcsinfo' in menu `taginfo' and in sectioning `commit files' differ /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:13374: warning: node next `taginfo' in menu `rcsinfo' and in sectioning `cvsignore' differ /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:13374: warning: node prev `taginfo' in menu `commit files' and in sectioning `rcsinfo' differ /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc/../..//cvs/doc/cvs.texinfo:13411: warning: node prev `cvsignore' in menu `rcsinfo' and in sectioning `taginfo' differ *** [cvs.info] Error code 1 make[3]: stopped in /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc 1 error make[3]: stopped in /usr/ports.work/usr/ports/devel/cvs/work/call/cvs-build/doc *** [_sub.all] Error code 2 Doing "env PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH make" hacks around it.
