Fortunately I found the problem without having to understand what the Tramp manual is doing with macros. It is the change to pass on -D to TeX that caused the problem, but not the "-D noinstallchapter" in particular. texi2any would parse the whole input and pass on the values of flags at the end of reading the file, which is clearly incorrect. Fixed in revision ada5d55.
