texinfo-4.1 -- some minor install problems

Hi,

I would suggest that you apply the attached patch to texinfo-4.1
Everything is related to the make-target "install-tex" (which works fine
with these mods)

If you are, on the other hand, no longer maintaining the "install-tex"
target, then it should be removed!!!

Here some comments on the patch:

1. I have modified doc/Makefile.in (because I didn't want to rerun
automake/autoconf and thereby get lots of irrelevant diffs), but the patch
should of course actually be applied to doc/Makefile.am

2. you should prefix the install directories with $(DESTDIR), because that
is what automake does for all generated install rules.

3. The file pdfcolor.tex should be installed as such (and not as epsf.tex)

4. You install epsf.tex in TEXMF/tex/generic/dvips/ and not in
TEXMF/tex/plain/dvips/. This is certainly OK and probably the better
solution, but then the doc/README shouldn't say something different.
