-@file{gdb.texinfo} is currently marked up using the texinfo-2 macros,
-which are not yet a default for anything (but we have to start using
-them sometime).
-
-For making paper, the only thing this implies is the right generation of
-@file{texinfo.tex} needs to be included in the distribution.
-
-For making info files, however, rather than duplicating the texinfo2
-distribution, generate @file{gdb-all.texinfo} locally, and include the
-files @file{gdb.info*} in the distribution.  Note the plural;
-@code{makeinfo} will split the document into one overall file and five
-or so included files.
