Re: @image in @example

[Per Bothner]

The issue reported below is a blocker that presents me from generating
the Kawa manual using makeinfo --html and info.js.  Compare the documentation 
of the
with-paint function here:
https://per.bothner.com/tmp/Kawa-txjs-plain/Composable-pictures.html#Colors-and-paints
with here:
https://www.gnu.org/software/kawa/Composable-pictures.html#Colors-and-paints

I don't think this is "regression" (thus perhaps not a release-blocker),
since I don't believe it works with the release texinfo either.
However, it does work when generating docbook or pdf.
The existing website uses docbook - but I would like to drop that dependency
at some point.
