It was just reported on the Cygwin mailing list that makeinfo can't be used in a
pipeline any more:

I assume this is not an intentional change.

It wasn't: it is due to the use internally of "-" to represent reading
from stdin, which is recognised by Perl's "open" command but not in
the C code. I've fixed it in commit c0666e580a (change below). Please
try the change and see if building your documentation works again.

That fixes it, thanks.
