Yes, the error itself should be harmless, but it has the problem of
causing some other files not to be built.  Please re-bootstrap with
  MAKEINFO=true ./bootstrap

then there should be a libtoolize.in file afterwards, and you should be
able to go on with the previous list, unless there are further errors.

I'll apply the patch below to let the impact of missing 'makeinfo' be
less of a problem, if you let me know which email address to add to
THANKS.

Cheers,

        Cope better with missing `makeinfo' in `bootstrap'.
        * bootstrap: Update `./doc/notes.txt' last so missing `makeinfo'
        does not cause a broken tree.
        * THANKS: Update.
