Sure - 'makeinfo' is called (as many other utilities) according to $PATH contents, and in case of my AppsFromScratch $PATH automatically contains
/mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/20120424/texinfo-4.13/bin
path element (of course, it is not hard coded, it's just this way on my desktop), and in it:
"
address@hidden:~/junk> ls -ltr /mnt/sdb8/sergei/AFSWD_debug/20120424/texinfo-4.13/bin
total 1252

Rita, you are happily stepping on many rakes I've already stepped.
