[John W. Eaton]

Update of bug #46637 (project octave):

Follow-up Comment #9:

I'm trying to build 4.0.2.

I thought I would go with the latest mxe-octave since there have been some bug
fixes there.  But now it looks like makeinfo is broken?  I'm seeing the
following error when print_usage is called.  Is it just me?  Am I doing
something wrong?  I built with --enable-devel-tools and I have perl in the bin
directory.
