binutils.texi frontmatter


From: Karl Berry
Subject: binutils.texi frontmatter
Date: Wed, 24 Oct 2007 18:01:41 -0500

I noticed some infelicities in the Texinfo frontmatter of
binutils.texi.  I'll append a diff and the new file.

In short:
- move top stuff to the top
- use @direntry/@dircategory, format entries to play nicely with others
- avoid duplicate copying strings
- don't misspell "Texinfo".

I hope this can be installed for next time.  Of course just let know if
any questions.

Thanks,
Karl
