I have downloaded texinfo-4.11.90.ar.gz.
No it does not really work.  As can be seen, now the configure script checks
for argz.h and declared functions and detects that they are not available
but it has no concequences.

checking for argz.h... no
checking for error_t... no

checking for error_at_line... no
