Hi,
  according to my experience, people who run "info autoconf" expect
to get the Autoconf manual, not "autoconf Invocation".
I hear someting like
  ``I tried "info autoconf", but it gave me an unusable man page''

And they feel trapped when I tell them to type "uu" or "t" or start
with "info Autoconf" (capital `a') instead.

I'd like to make their experience with the info documentation better,
possibly by the patch below.

What do you think?
