Re: bug? with texi2dvi and udotaccent in section

    texi2dvi seems to break on @udotaccent{a} in a @section. 

It's not the @udotaccent in the @section that's the problem, it's the
one in the @node.  You can't use @ commands in node names, they have to
be simple text.

(Well, makeinfo has an option --commands-in-node-names to allow this,
but it is fragile due to its nature, and it won't help with TeX
processing, anyway.)

I hope that one day Texinfo will allow normal 8-bit characters (like the
preaccented letters found on most international keyboards) as plain
text, but right now I don't think even that will work.

Sorry,
karl
