Careful: stripping out @-commands might produce invalid Texinfo.
Consider, for example, a case like this:
set FOO bar
set BAR baz
...
@node @value{FOO} baz
...
@xref{FOO @value{BAR}}.
If you strip all the @-commands, this example will fail because the
argument of @xref taken as a literal string does not compare equal to
the node name taken as a literal string. You must do a full expansion
of @-commands for such Texinfo files to work.
