This is _not_ a solution.  It does _not_ work.
It is a problem even when building the complete egcs-980328.tar.gz
snapshot.  I see a similar problem (yes, I'm using gnumake)
when building for host==target==alphaev56-dec-osf4.0b

I get

...

gnumake[3]: Leaving directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo/makeinfo'
Making all in po
gnumake[3]: Entering directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo/po'
PATH=../src:$PATH : --default-domain=texinfo --directory=.. \
  --add-comments --keyword=_ --keyword=N_ \
  --files-from=./POTFILES.in
rm -f ./texinfo.pot
mv texinfo.po ./texinfo.pot
mv: rename texinfo.po to ./texinfo.pot: No such file or directory
gnumake[3]: *** [texinfo.pot] Error 1
gnumake[3]: Leaving directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo/po'

gnumake[1]: Leaving directory `/proj/gorton/egcs-980328/texinfo'
gnumake: *** [all-texinfo] Error 2

Then, when I apply the bison++ "fix", I get:

touch `find texinfo -name \*.pot -print`

It fails, because there are no .pot files

After re-invoking gnumake:

I get the exact same error as listed above.
