 Adding to my previous reply - in an ideal world, I would like to
feed back to other distros where it is appropriate.  The failure of
my xindy test on slackbuilds looks like that sort of case, but since
I cannot fix the similar issue on BLFS i686 there is for the moment
nothing I can offer.

 Also, that test is a long way from a MWE - even for an index test
where a minimum sensible example needs at least two pages plus an
index.  Perhaps, I might try to convert it to a minimal old-tex
example.  But to quote a translation of Deorsa Mac Iain Deorsa's
gàidhlig poetry - Time, The Deer, Is In The Wood of Hannay (no, I'm
not going to diverge into analysis of that - concentrate on the
first word).

 Meanwhile, although I find texinfo somewhat addictive, the world,
or at least that part of it that Fernando has committed to BLFS,
is moving ever onwards ;-)  So, I'll be spending some time trying
to see if I can find anything in the asymptote builds between 7.6
and late-November svn.  After that, there are a lot of other
non-texinfo things to test.

 Or, I might just accept that my own time account for BLFS is
severely overdrawn and heading for closure.
