I was luckier: CVS Libtool distchecks succesfully here.  

I'm using Debian unstable, with Autoconf 2.57, Automake 1.7.2b, 
Libtool 1.4e, Texinfo 4.3a, Make 3.80, Bash 2.05b.0(1)-release.

My install-info is that from Texinfo, not from Debian.
(Maybe Debian's install-info creates the ${infodir}/dir file?)

Any idea when these files get installed?  
Are they installed by `make install'?  (i.e., outside distcheck')
