Problem with compilation 7.3.4

From

Date:
When i try to configure postgres before compilation returned errors:

[wolk@Lucutus postgresql-7.3.4]$ ./configure --infodir=/usr/share/info
configure: error: unrecognized option: --infodir=/usr/share/info
Try `./configure --help' for more information.

The infodir option is present in ./configure script
postgres release 7.3.4

What is wrong?

There is no info documentation, so you don't need this option.

Someone was complaining about this just recently.  We don't need the
option and don't have it implemented, but configure --help advertises
it anyway (and fails to advertise the --docdir option that we do have).
Can that be fixed?

Thank's for help. I turn this off and all was ok.
