I'm building Insight 6.1 on Cygwin with the patch file,
gdb-6.1-bdm-m68k.patch, from the bdm tools in
/gdb/patches subdirectory.

With this patch I get an error on installing Insight,
with makeinfo:

I do NOT get this error when I do not use the patch.
I'm also using the patch file, insight-6.0.patch, but
it does not give me any problems.

I'm configuring with --target=m68k-elf and --prefix set
to another directory than the default.
