In which case does that happen ?
When you restart a build?
When a build failed ?
After a successfull build ?

The makeinfo wrapper should be anihilated when a build is started, because
one of the first things we do is to rm -rf the install dir.

Could you provide a reproducible procedure that exhibits the issue?
