Can you include texinfo in a top-level directory and have it built

That is correct. The only change we ended up making was to the build
instructions, which now point out that new versions of Texinfo produce
better HTML output, but that the version of Texinfo packaged with your
OS distribution is adequate for building GCC otherwise. We have GCC
developers using quite old LTS distros with even older versions of
Texinfo, so we would find out about it if something broke backward
compatibility of the documentation.
