Subject: | Please make docs and makeinfo conditional on the --enable-docs variables, instead of being unconditional |

Every dependency needs to be rebuilt manually, including binutils. Binutils unconditionally requires 'makeinfo' which comes from print/texinfo. It would be a pain to rebuild texinfo on this system.Since docs is essentially an optional component - binutils should have a corresponding config argument, like --enable-docs, that would be able to disable docs.
Could you please add --enable-docs, or similar, that would simplify life for people who build binutils on outdated systems like the one I use?
Thank you, Yuri
