Sorry. I now updated my system to texinfo-5.2.
However, when I run "make pdf V=1", I get this:
make[1]: Entering directory
`/home/me/src/test/doc'
TEXINPUTS="../build-aux:$TEXINPUTS"
\
MAKEINFO='/bin/sh /home/me/src/test/build-aux/missing makeinfo -I

texi2dvi --pdf --batch --build-dir=manual.t2p -o manual.pdf \
manual.texi
This is pdfeTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.21a-2.2 (Web2C
7.5.4)

Output written on manual.pdf (30 pages, 224393 bytes).
Transcript written on manual.log.
/home/me/bin/texi2dvi: pdfetex exited with bad status, quitting.
make[1]: *** [manual_eqtlbma.pdf] Error 1
Can this be due to the fact that my version of pdfetex is too old? (Or is
it pdfeTeXk? Is it the same thing?)
