The questions I would ask are:

What version of make are you using?
What is /bin/sh for you (eg bash, dash, etc)?
After you configure, what does doc/emacs/Makefile look like?
  (best to send the whole thing as an attachment)

Just to see if it works, try passing the --without-makeinfo argument to
configure.
