blanking INFO_DEPS suffices to prevent attempts to rebuild the docs,
but does not reliably suppress their installation. blanking infodir
does the latter. there are other methods that work too but this seems
to be the simplest.
nothing in a normal gcc/binutils actually uses flex and bison, but
this useless test for the output filename lex produces breaks the
build unless [f]lex is installed. the result of this check is
specified by posix anyway, so hard-code the specified result.
