Changing \t to \\t in the source allows makeinfo to complete without
complaint, and fixes the missing \ in the info output, but it results in
a doubled-up \\ in pdf output.
Trying to use @backslash{}t failed, because there is no @backslash
command (should there be?).
Any other ideas for a workaround that works for both info and pdf? Or
do we make generation of the autoconf depend on an as-yet unreleased
texinfo version?
