texinfo.tex (version 2002-11-25.11) seems to have some problems with
    @copying containing comments or @ignore.

Thanks for the report.  I put a new version of texinfo.tex on prep which
I believe fixes these bugs.  (It's not feasible to fully implement
@ignore, but as you stick to simple text, it should be fine.)  Diff
below.

BTW, you can make the copying text take up a few less lines if you
want (not that it really matters).  See the sample text at
http://www.gnu.org/manual/texinfo/html_node/GNU-Sample-Texts.html

Happy holiday hacking,
karl
