    Would you be sure that it's really possible?  That is, they can be
    installed into the same `dir' even if their categories / entries
    conflict?  I remember I failed this...

The dircategories/entries are only used by install-info when updating
the dir file, as far as I can remember.  They have no effect on what
info readers do with the dir file.  So menu entries like

* Emacs 21: (emacs21).
* Emacs 20: (emacs20).

should work (but I haven't tried it :).  You'll have to create them by
hand instead of using install-info, and rename the emacs*.info files by
hand too, but I guess you're already doing that...
