Right.

I don't think it does. I'm using the following for ages (in the
gdb/doc subdirectory) to build the CVS docs without building anything
else:
make -f Makefile.in info MAKEINFO_CMD="makeinfo --split-size=5000000 \
-DHAVE_MAKEINFO_CLICK" READLINE_TEXI_INCFLAG=-I../../readline/doc \
GDBMI_DIR=../mi srcdir=. \
BUGURL_TEXI="@uref{http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/bugs/}"; \
PKGVERSION=(GDB)
The details for 7.3.1 will probably need to be different, but you get
the idea.
