error in gprof.texi


I get the following error in binutils 2.17.50 from trunk.
It happens when installing gprof.info on Mandriva linux i586 spring edition 2007 (free) or i686-pc-linux.


It really is annoying. Seems to have started yesterday or whenever gprof was installed.
makeinfo has been updated, but it was from 2004. And it was the same on built in.
I know you are not supposed to use prerelease software, but I am a risk taker as for as
software goes. Could the maintainer of gprof.texi look into this?
It happens when installing with makeinfo, not when compiling.
