The DJGPP port of GNU Make is in the file mak371bn.zip (the
binaries) and mak371dc.zip (the docs).

You have probably read an outdated version of the FAQ.  The
latest version is in the file faqNNN.zip (available from the
same place you got DJGPP), and it answers this question (it
also would have answered your question about where is the
Make program).  The problem with Info is that some of the Info
files as distributed with DJGPP are DOS-style text files (i.e.,
they have CR-LF pair which delimits each line), and the version
of Info which is distributed with DJGPP doesn't like that.  You
can either run those files through DTOU (as the FAQ explains)
or download a patched version of Info.exe from one of the
following sites:
