I don't think that's true.  It's just that _any_ string which starts
with a `@' is treated by M-q as a separate paragraph.

In other words, if, e.g., you put @code on a line by itself, it will
also be ``ignored'' like @item is.

See the variables paragraph-separate and paragraph-start set by
texinfo-mode.

Please give an example.  If that macro is used on a line by itself,
texinfo.el should already do that.  If it is not used on a line by
itself, why do you need filling to ignore it?
