This is the exact reason why I leaned toward using regexps instead of
xml-parse-file. In my first attempt to use xml-parse-file I discovered
that `makeinfo --xml' sometimes produces non-wellformed XML, so we can't
parse it with xml-parse-file. Even if this will be fixed in the future
releases of makeinfo, old versions still produce invalid XML output.
I don't think we need to cater to the buggy makeinfo. This is a
long-term issue, and in the long-term we can fix makeinfo.
That doesn't mean your regexp-based approach is bad.
Would you please report the makeinfo bugs to bug-texinfo?
That is very important.
