makeinfo 4.5 segfaults frequently

[Arkadiusz Miskiewicz]

How to repeat:

address@hidden ~/rpm/BUILD/exim-4.12/exim-texinfo-4.10/doc]$ ls
filter.texinfo  spec.texinfo
address@hidden ~/rpm/BUILD/exim-4.12/exim-texinfo-4.10/doc]$ makeinfo 
filter.texinfo
address@hidden ~/rpm/BUILD/exim-4.12/exim-texinfo-4.10/doc]$ makeinfo 
spec.texinfo
address@hidden ~/rpm/BUILD/exim-4.12/exim-texinfo-4.10/doc]$ makeinfo 
filter.texinfo spec.texinfo
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  makeinfo filter.texinfo spec.texinfo
address@hidden ~/rpm/BUILD/exim-4.12/exim-texinfo-4.10/doc]$ makeinfo 
filter.texinfo not_existant_file
zsh: segmentation fault (core dumped)  makeinfo filter.texinfo not_existant_file
address@hidden ~/rpm/BUILD/exim-4.12/exim-texinfo-4.10/doc]$

makeinfo existant.texinfo notexistantfile should be enough.
