Perhaps a warning:  WARNING:  INFO FILE NOT BUILT CORRECTLY.  WILL NOT HAVE DOC 
FUNCTION, which would be clearly visible amongst all the text output.

Either or both of these is OK with me, as is having a failure in

skip building the documentation (I can't remember if that has already
been done).
