solfege @3.19.2_1 build failure

Description
Mac OS version is 10.7.5. From reading the log file (attached), it appears makeinfo is failing with the error "raising the section level of @section which is too low". A bit of Googling suggests this may be a problem with newer versions of Texinfo being incompatible with older documentation files. I have version 5.2 of texinfo installed.

As reporter, you do not need to Cc yourself; you will automatically receive notifications. However, you should Cc the maintainer of the port so that they see your ticket. I have assigned the ticket to the port's maintainer now.
I see that the version of solfege that we have in MacPorts, 3.19.2, is years old, and many newer stable versions have come since then, the latest being 3.22.2. 3.19.2 isn't stable; it was a development version, and it's not even the newest development version of the 3.19 series. The port should be updated. Maybe a newer version is already compatible with texinfo 5.

I tried to replace the faulty file (FAQ.texi) with the one coming from the latest version (3.23.0, unstable) and the port now does install. In other words, I did:
sudo port install
I waited for it to fail. Then:
mv solfege-3.23.0/topdocs/FAQ.texi /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_release_tarballs_ports_audio_solfege/solfege/work/solfege-3.19.2/topdocs/FAQ.texi
and finally:
sudo port install solfege
again. I can now enjoy solfege again (version 3.19.2). I tried this on OS X 10.9.4 and also on 10.6.
I understand this is pretty ugly. How can one update the port?

This diff updates to 3.22.2 which has the same FAQ.texi as the 3.23 unstable release.

I fixed this in r137540. We should still do the update, though. Kurt, do you want to commit this?

Yea, I forgot about this ticket - they are using "cp --parents" which needs patched.
