Description
Fresh install on 10.9.
Apparently (i.e., from a google search) what was a soft error in texinfo is now a hard error:
:info:destroot tzsh.texi:22648: @itemx must follow @item
I changed the itemx in question to an item and the install completes. I have no idea the semantics of this but I don't use the local texinfo anyway, so ...

Replying to egall@…:
It'd be useful to keep a texinfo4 port around for incompatibilities like this that texinfo5 has introduced
Noted. This ticket is about zsh.

Please provide a complete main.log of the error you’re encountering. The zsh port should not be using Texinfo at all.

main.log attached.
I should have noted that I use a custom install location, in case that's relevant.

As egall@ mentioned, this is a bit systemic: I just came up with the same error for wget. Should I go ahead and file a bug for that, too?

Yes, please file a bug for any ports you come across that are affected by this.

The zsh install.info build target does use Texinfo, but it calls the relevant executables without full pathnames, so it will use MacPorts’ Texinfo if you have it installed and Apple’s Texinfo otherwise.
I just updated zsh to 5.0.3. The new Texinfo sources are compatible with both the system Texinfo (4.8 on Mavericks with Xcode 5.0.2) and MacPorts’ Texinfo (5.2). You should be able to install successfully after cleaning zsh and doing a selfupdate.
