Subject: Can we build Maxima without needing makeinfo?

Maxima is used in Sage, but texinfo is not a requirement for building Sage. As
such, it has been reported that the Maxima failed to build on a system where
makeinfo (part http://www.gnu.org/software/texinfo/) of was not installed.
It is possible to build Maxima without requiring the texinfo package to be
installed? If so how.
