Odd, I cannot reproduce it here. There's no point in calling
install-info though (as we don't use the info pages for anything), so
I've committed a change to disable it:

mtools: ensure install-info isn't used
mtools calls install-info at 'make install' time if available after
installing the mtools info page - But as we don't use the info pages for
anything / remove in target-finalize, this is a waste of time and a
potential cause of build failures as reported on the list:
http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2016-May/160604.html
So ensure configure doesn't find it.
