That is correct.  The only change we ended up making was to the build 
instructions, which now point out that new versions of Texinfo produce 
better HTML output, but that the version of Texinfo packaged with your 
OS distribution is adequate for building GCC otherwise.  We have GCC 
developers using quite old LTS distros with even older versions of 
Texinfo, so we would find out about it if something broke backward 
compatibility of the documentation.
