It certainly does for me:
barimba. pwd
/home/tromey/gnu/baseline-gdb/build/binutils
barimba. grep '^srcdir = ' Makefile
srcdir = ../../src/binutils
barimba. find . -name 'binutils.info'
./doc/binutils.info
barimba. find ../../src/binutils -name 'binutils.info'
barimba.
How did you test it?
If you built from a distribution tar, then it is expected that the info
file would be in srcdir.
