texi2dvi (from texinfo 4.8) does not honor @.

[Jim Meyering]

Hello,

I was surprised to see that in both pdf and DVI output,
address@hidden' does not render as it is documented to do.

Given this file, k.texi:

\input texinfo
ending in address@hidden  If
@bye

when I run `texi2dvi --pdf --batch k.texi' and then view the results
with `xpdf k.pdf', I see that there is *no* space between the period and
the following `If'.  The documentation led me to expect a sentence-ending
amount of space after the period.

The same thing happens if I generate and look at the DVI output.
