TRAMP User Manual problems with Texinfo 5.0

I converted the Emacs documentation to be compatible with
Texinfo 5.0, here:

http://bzr.savannah.gnu.org/lh/emacs/trunk/revision/111840

but there's one file I couldn't easily convert, and would
like either advice about what to do, or a fix to Texinfo
so that it handles this file correctly.

The file is the TRAMP User Manual.  To reproduce the
problem, save the three attached files
doclicense.texi, tramp.texi, and trampver.texi into
a directory, and run the shell command:

  makeinfo -o t.info tramp.texi

This works fine with Texinfo 4.13, but Texinfo 5.0
issues many diagnostics; see the attached file zerr.txt.
Apparently Texinfo 5.0 doesn't like this macro definition:

   @macro xxx address@hidden
   @set address@hidden
   @end macro

but as I am not a Texinfo expert I don't know what the
macro definition is supposed to do, or why Texinfo 5.0
doesn't like it.  Can you please advise?  Thanks.
