It works here - I'm not sure how to best find out the difference between our systems.
texinfo @5.2_2 (active)

I'm on Sierra now. a2ps still fails to destroot when texinfo is installed, currently version @6.3_0+universal. Succeeds when texinfo is deactivated.

FYI I ran into this issue again just now, on macOS 12.0.1. Please see attachment if interested.

OK, the issue can be reduced to
cd /opt/local/var/macports/build/_opt_local_var_macports_sources_rsync.macports.org_macports_release_tarballs_ports_print_a2ps/a2ps/work/a2ps-4.14/doc makeinfo -I . -o a2ps.info a2ps.texi
It turns out /opt/local/bin/makeinfo doesn't like a2ps.texi, but /usr/bin/makeinfo is fine with it.
I'm not sure of the best way to change the port, but this was the only blocking item. Everything else builds OK. The port can be "fixed" by a patch to replace makeinfo = makeinfo with makeinfo = /usr/bin/makeinfo in doc/Makefile.
