Problem with makeinfo --xml

[Sandip Bhattacharya]

I am having trouble converting the texinfo GDB manual to xml. Please let me 
know if this is a known issue.
I could not figure out from my searches if it is.

=============================
$ makeinfo.new --version
makeinfo (GNU texinfo) 4.13
==============================

texinfo document being used is GDB 6.8 manual.


======================================
$ texi2pdf.new --clean -q gdb.texinfo 
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: Running pdfetex --file-line-error </dev/null '
onstopmode' '\input' 
'/home/sandipb/docs/gdb/gdb-6.8/gdb/doc/gdb2/./gdb.texinfo' ...
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: Running pdfetex --file-line-error </dev/null '

/usr/bin/texi2dvi: Running pdfetex --file-line-error </dev/null '

address@hidden:~/docs/gdb/gdb-6.8/gdb/doc/gdb2$ ls -l *.pdf
-rw-r--r-- 1 sandipb sandipb 2029954 2009-02-10 16:58 gdb.pdf
========================================

i.e. no error for pdf output.

But for makeinfo:

=========================================

Error xml_element
Error xml_element
===========================================

gdb.xml is generated, but is incorrect xml.


============================================
...
      <table>
        <tableitem>
          <tableterm><code>nostop</code></tableterm>
            <para>{No value for `           &lt;item&gt; GDBN'} should not stop 
your program when this signal happens.  It may still print a message telling 
you that the signal has come in.</para>
          </item>
        </tableitem>
...
===========================================

Source where problem is happening:

===========================================
@table @code
@item nostop
@value{GDBN} should not stop your program when this signal happens.  It may
still print a message telling you that the signal has come in.

@item stop
@value{GDBN} should stop your program when this signal happens.  This implies
the @code{print} keyword as well.
