I have confirmed that rebuilding sawfish with texinfo/4.11.dfsg.1-3 solves the problem. Rebuilds of the affected packages (but I have no idea which are those) should be scheduled after that version of texinfo is installed in all arches (currently arm, hppa, s390 and sparc are building, and m68k is in dep-wait).
