Comment (by Shisui):
I got the same error when re-configuring my Haiku build under Ubuntu 10.04
x64. The first time, I was able to bypass this error by replacing the
generated makeinfo by a symlink to /usr/bin/makeinfo. This time, I search
in the makeinfo sourcecode what was going wrong.
A bad strcpy() call is involved, which tries to copy a buffer over
himself, which is strongly discouraged since it may or may not work,
depending on the implementation (I believe the strcpy implementation in
the x64 version of libc can't handle buffer overlap).
The above patch correct this strcpy() call. :-)
