That seems best indeed.  makeinfo should not remove characters, in
general.  I suspect a bug linked to character or byte counting.
Could you please send a small example file?  In fact I think I can edit
it, but I don't know how to insert the special character.

In fact, the character \x{1F} is used as a temporary character in
processing text for plaintext or Info.  Is that safe?  Is it the same
character?

Looking at the code, I see \x{7F} is ouput, but only in indirect table, so
it means that it should not be in node names.  \x{1F} is also output at
some places, I think that's why I used it as temporary character because
I assumed it wouldn't appear in real text, and there is also \x{00}\x{08}
that is output.
