Trying to build recent master on Fedora 25 fails with two errors from Perl (perl-5.24.1-383.fc25.x86_64) in doc/texi2html:

> cd . && perl ./texi2html -number -monolithic gperf.texi
> Can't use 'defined(@array)' (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) at ./texi2html line 1564.
> Makefile:103: recipe for target 'gperf.html' failed
> make[1]: * [gperf.html] Error 255


and

> cd . && perl ./texi2html -number -monolithic gperf.texi
> Can't use 'defined(@array)' (Maybe you should just omit the defined()?) at ./texi2html line 1572.
> Makefile:103: recipe for target 'gperf.html' failed
> make[1]: * [gperf.html] Error 255


Just removing the defined(...) wrappers from the two lines as suggested lets 'make' succeed.
