Trying to regenerate the manual using the instructions from doc/README,
I get an error:

Generating dvi... (env LANG= LC_MESSAGES= LC_ALL= LANGUAGE= texi2dvi  -t 
@finalout "[...]/gnulib-git/doc/gnulib.texi")
[...]/bin/texi2dvi: texinfo.tex appears to be broken.
This may be due to the environment variable TEX set to something
other than (plain) tex, a corrupt texinfo.tex file, or 
to tex itself simply not working.
This is pdfTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-1.40.16 (TeX Live 2015/Debian)
