What version of makeinfo is present? For me:
$ guix shell -D guix -- makeinfo --version
texi2any (GNU texinfo) 6.8

I have to admit, I am unsure what the problem exactly is. Unless someone else
comes with a better idea, what you could try:
1. Clean up the git worktree (I use `git clean -xffd')
2. Do the whole process step-by-step again
3. Send here the full output (commands executed and their output); also include
both guix describe output and git commit of the guix repository you are on
Maybe there will be more ideas based on that. Sorry I cannot be of more use.
