 THIS IS THE SOURCE PRIOR TO PREPROCESSING.  The full source needs to
 be run through m4 before either tex- or info- formatting: for example,
 _0__
-    m4 pretex.m4 none.m4 m680x0.m4 gdb.texinfo >gdb-680x0.texinfo
+    m4 pretex.m4 none.m4 all.m4 gdb.texinfo >gdb-all.texinfo
 _1__
 will produce (assuming your path finds either GNU m4 >= 0.84, or SysV
 m4; Berkeley won't do) a file suitable for formatting.  See the text in
 "pretex.m4" for a fuller explanation (and the macro definitions).
