I could build autoconf2.1 successfully by the following steps.
1) Modify autoconf2.1.cygport as follows.
diff --git a/autoconf2.1.cygport.orig b/autoconf2.1.cygport
index c8b075f..6876c3c 100755
--- a/autoconf2.1.cygport.orig
+++ b/autoconf2.1.cygport
@@ -28,7 +28,7 @@ src_compile() {
cd ${B}
cygconf --program-suffix=-2.13
cygmake -j1
- (makeinfo --no-split -I ${S} -o autoconf2.13.info autoconf.texi)
+ (makeinfo --no-split -o autoconf2.13.info ${S}/autoconf.texi)
}
DIFF_EXCLUDES="autoconf.info standards.info stamp-vti version.texi"
2) Run 'export AUTOCONF_VERSION=2.13'
3) Run 'cygport autoconf2.1.cygport all'
