[Bug binutils/4791] New: etc/standards.texi: @strong{Note...} produces a spurious cross-reference in Info

[nightstrike at gmail dot com]

Received these two warnings during 'make info' of the latest cvs version:

../../src/etc/standards.texi:1743: warning: @strong{Note...} produces a 
spurious cross-reference in Info; reword to avoid that.
../../src/etc/standards.texi:1858: warning: @strong{Note...} produces a 
spurious cross-reference in Info; reword to avoid that.

The phrase "Note" is set with strong emphasis in such a way as to tag it as a 
cross-reference.  This should not occur.  The following patch cleans up the 
text of both entries and makes their formatting identical:
