Re: @footnote within @multitable is lost from TeX output

[Karl Berry]

    the following workaround is possible: inside @multitable, redefine
    @footnote so that it doesn't create the insertion immediately but
    saves the footnote text.  As soon as the current row is finished,
    the saved footnote is converted to an insertion.

Thanks very much, I installed this change and updated texinfo.tex on
prep.  (Also installed the subsequent one using \pagewidth instead of a
new \savedhsize.)
