Thanks a lot. I now see it is not a good idea to customize
Info-default-directory-list.
Still, with the setup indicated above, Info-directory-list is
("/home/cochard/Org/Coch-git/org-mode/doc"
"/usr/local/share/info/" "/usr/share/info/" "/usr/share/info/")
and the 1st line of the Info Org manual is
This manual is for Org version 9.6.
So, somehow, setq Info-default-directory-list is taken into account
(if I don't to it, I get "Org version 9.4", the native one for emacs
27.2) and I still don't understand why I don't see the effect of the
patch in the Info Org manual (I do see the effect in org.pdf).
