This is reasonably uncommon to hit, I only hit it because I:

1. Made sure to perform a full depclean --with-bdeps=y prior to (re-)emerging nettle
2. And then, I used binpkg's to provision all of nettle's own build dependencies.

Which means the *indirect* build-deps that *could* have pulled texinfo into the graph, didn't.

Notedly, this is a very ultraminimal chroot, given perl gets regularly depcleaned :)

Your BDEPEND change looks legitimate. ACK on behalf of base-system.

So I guess some keyword love for texinfo is needed for:

    dev-libs/nettle: BDEPEND texinfo for USE=doc bug #749831
    
    Adds texinfo to BDEPEND with USE="doc" as not having this causes
    src_configure to fail, and texinfo *can* be depcleaned on minimal
    systems.
    
    Keywords:
    - New dependency texinfo not keyworded everywhere, keywords dropped
      for:
        amd64-linux
        m68k-mint
        ppc-macos
        sparc-solaris sparc64-solaris
        x64-cygwin x64-macos x64-solaris
        x86-linux  x86-macos x86-solaris

Prefix keywording done, so I guess this can be closed?
