## Summary

On modern Darwin (macOS), `install-info` and `makeinfo` are no longer provided under `/usr/bin/`. RSB's `defaults.mc` defaults both to `/usr/bin/install-info` and `/usr/bin/makeinfo`, causing warnings during `sb-check` and a build failure when compiling packages that invoke them (such as `sis`):

```
warning: exe: absolute exe found in path: (__install_info) /usr/bin/install-info
warning: exe: absolute exe found in path: (__makeinfo) /usr/bin/makeinfo
```

## Solution

Override `__install_info` and `__makeinfo` in `source-builder/sb/darwin.py` with their executable names `('exe', 'optional', 'install-info')` and `('exe', 'optional', 'makeinfo')`. This allows RSB to locate them from `PATH` (e.g. from Homebrew or MacPorts), consistent with the existing overrides for `xz` and `cvs` on Darwin.

Verified with `python3 source-builder/sb-check` and a complete SPARC toolchain build on macOS Apple Silicon.
