This means buildjobs? If so, that suggests that octave is not fully 
capable of handling a large amount of build CPUs (though it works for me 
with 6).

Sounds like your original texinfo build was broken because that's what 
provides /opt/sw/bin/makeinfo (and system-makeinfo at v4.8 is known to 
fail). So rebuilding it seems to have worked, but

Locale/Messages.pm is provided by locale-textdomain-pm5184, which is a 
direct dependency of the texinfo package. Please make sure 
"locale-textdomain-pm5184" installed. If it is, I'm not sure why 
/opt/sw/bin/makeinfo is not finding it. But on my system, @INC has 
several /sw/lib/perl5 paths that are missing from yours error above.
