Failing to configure

./configure: line 5995:
texinfo[^0-9]*([1-4][0-9]+|[5-9]|4\.[6-9]|4\.[1-5][0-9]+): command not
found
configure: error: You do not seem to have makeinfo >= 4.6, and your
source tree does not seem to have pre-built manuals in the `info' directory.
Either install a suitable version of makeinfo, or re-run configure
with the `--without-makeinfo' option to build without the manuals.

I have texinfo installed:

$ makeinfo --version
makeinfo (GNU texinfo) 4.13

Actually the cause of command not found in  line 5995:

 $MAKEINFO --version 2> /dev/null | $EGREP
'texinfo[^0-9]*([1-4][0-9]+|[5-9]|4\.[6-9]|4\.[1-5][0-9]+

is that EGREP here is not correctly set.  I can see that the value of
EGREP is empty.

Any clues?
