Details:

Hello Patrice & Karl,

I am forking a new thread for this one, in order not to mix up discussion with
the --html --no-split.

So to recall the problem, under MSWindows I call

sh makeinfo --html --no-split c:\my\path\fr.texi

the current directory is 

c:\somewhere\else

and the problem is that the output is created under c:\my\path rather than
under c:\somewhere\else

sh is MSYS bash shell, and makeinfo is just a wrapper bash script to call
texi2any.

If I do sh makeinfo --html --no-split c:/my/path/fr.texi

there is no problem, but I think that I should be able to use \ instead of /
because tex2any is installed under MSWindows. Actually it was more practical
for me to use \ because I make this command line through an ant buildfile that
generates file path this way. I can robustify this buildfile, but
nevertheless, I think that there is an issue with texi2any.
