How's that not a problem? The current Makefile.inc1 is written so,
that bootstrap-tools are built with:
BMAKE=${BMAKEENV} ${MAKE} -f Makefile.inc1 -DNOMAN -DNOINFO -DNOHTML
^^^^^^^^
So, how inside the Makefile.inc1's bootstrap-tools: target I could know
whether the user requested NOINFO, or Makefile.inc1 itself?
