I ran into this problem when using Texinfo 5.2 to install GNU Emacs into a destination directory whose file name contained spaces. The shell command: 

install-info --info-dir="/d/a b/info" "/d/a b/info/emacs.info.gz"

failed with the diagnostic "sh: /d/a: No such file or directory".

I'm attaching a proposed patch.
