thanks for the feedback until now.
I reverted back to texinfo 4.13 from the TinyCore 4.x repostitory
I completely removed my working directory and started from the
scratch. Now the info files are generated, but I'm still getting errors,
this time the errors are more obscure to me.

Should I try to revert back also gcc? Which version would be preferred?
I am currently using TinyCore 7, in version 6, there was gcc-4.9.1,
version 5 had 4.7.2 and version 4 had 4.6.1.
I don't really know what happens if I mix development tools from
different version, but apparently most required tools are packaged
in one pseudo-package.
Here are the versions of the different tools I used this time:
makeinfo (GNU texinfo) 4.13.
gcc (GCC) 5.2.0
GNU bash, version 4.3.39(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu)
bzip2, a block-sorting file compressor. Version 1.0.6, 6-Sept-2010.
sed (GNU sed) 4.2.2
GNU Awk 4.1.3, API: 1.1 (GNU MPFR 3.1.3-p4, GNU MP 6.0.0)
m4 (GNU M4) 1.4.17
bison (GNU Bison) 3.0.4
flex 2.5.39
autoconf (GNU Autoconf) 2.69
GNU help2man 1.46.1
Regards and thanks in advance for any help
