Sorry, false alarm.  I erroneously used makeinfo 2.6.  Is there any
reason why this (fundamental) change isn't documented in the NEWS
file?  It isn't mentioned in texinfo.txi either.

Another strange thing is that there doesn't happen macro expansion
(using `makeinfo -E') within @ifnotinfo ... @end ifnotinfo.  Below an
example.  This seems to be a real bug.
