I have modified the code, such that end of line at the end of @set line 
do not close the @item anymore.

The following leads to an error, though:

@table @code
@item xx @set n
@item jj
@end table

f.texi:14: @item outside of table or list
f.texi:14: warning: @item should not appear in @item

Indeed @item jj happens within '@item xx @set n' since the newline of
this @item line is ignored.

Should the @set end of line be taken into account or not depending on
what comes next?


As a side note, makeinfo in C processes the following:

@table @code
@item @set a b
item text
in item
@item jj @set j
line
@item vvv @set address@hidden
@end table


@table @code
@item xx @set n
@item jj
@end table


but leads to:


`
     item text in item

`jj
     line

`vvv

`xx

`jj'


Therefore it is very weird that it correctly process tramp.texi, while
it do not process the same constructs outside of user defined @-macro
invocations...
