target: arm-unknown-netbsdelf
configured with: /work/rearnsha/gnusrc/egcs/configure --prefix=/work/rearnsha/gnu/install --disable-checking arm-netbsdelf
>Description:
The Makefile in the fastjar directory now uses the --split-size
option, but this is not available in non-modern version of makeinfo.
Either the option should not be used, or configure should check for
a version of makeinfo that has this capability.
>How-To-Repeat:
Bootstrap gcc on a machine with an old version of makeinfo (eg 4.0)
>Fix:
Copy the code from gcc/configure.in into fastjar/configure.in that
checks the version of makeinfo.

Or move the version check to toplevel. Doing either will also allow the
fastjar manual to ue @copying, which I didn't do in the main @copying
patch because of the lack of makeinfo version checks for fastjar.
