    That doesn't happen, and nobody seems to miss it. If the shell can
    avoid a lot of complexity handling multiple versions of programs, I
    suspect it may not be necessary for documentation either.

Indeed.  Which is why I don't understand why we're having this whole
thread.  Sorry.  It seems to me that symlinks, configure --infodir,
INFOPATH, multiple dir files, whatever ..., is already enough mechanism,
and any attempt to explicitly support multiple versions of manuals will
just lead to madness.
