You're having trouble building the documentation. A simple workaround
is to not build it, disable it from the configure script. The problem
seems to be with your version of TeXinfo and/or TeX, so which ones do
you have installed? TeXinfo should recognise a less than or equal
sign.

Regarding the curl problem, I think we've seen it before, so we
probably do need an actual fix for it in case the curl API has changed
in recent versions. Can you please open a bug report about that as a
reminder to at least investigate that problem more thoroughly? Thanks.
