Texinfo manual and Emacs behaviour

Hello!

The Texinfo documentation (edition 4.8, the version currently
available from www.gnu.org), chapter 2, says that narrow-to-page is "C-x
p", but in my version of Emacs it is "C-x n p". Likewise it says that
up-list is "C-c C-c }" or "C-c C-c ]", when it is in fact "C-c }" or
"C-c ]". It also says that texinfo-insert-braces is "C-c C-c {" when
it is in fact "C-c {".

I use GNU Emacs 21.4.1 on Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 (sarge). The following
diff shows the changes needed to make the manual describe the
behavior of my system:
