It's your Wife and Girlfriend?

Anyway, moving on...

I think the normal expectation is that `make' will build anything that
`make install' needs. The Emacs build does not work like this: building
the info files is deferred to the install step.

It seems to me that the `all' target should also run the `info' rule.
I know we are supposed to cater to people without makeinfo, but I can't
see how this is a factor here.

But it does not affect releases, where the info files are premade, so no
rush to change this now.
