    * Tar: (tar).                   Making tape (or disk) archives.

    The node name is missing (after the closing parenthesis), which is
    allowed, although less common. 

Hmm.  It's standard practice for dir file entries, as far as I can see
(not counting "Individual utilities").

Maybe the second set of parens causes the error, although I see that
coreutils, gzip, bison, and others also have that, so probably not.  E.g.,
* Coreutils: (coreutils).       Core GNU (file, text, shell) utilities.

The other weird thing is that i-i has extensive tests.  I'm surprised
the problem was not found there.  If it wasn't, another test should be
added.

Alan, did you run make check?
