I'm not sure there is a use in having *-fsf-4.5.info files. They are
not indexed and generally visible unless the gcc4x package is
installed (InfoDocs entries). And although they can be accessed if you
know their special name, they contain hyperlinks to each other that do
not know about these special names (for example, a link in gcj-fsf-4.5
for "gcc" likely points to gcc not gcc-fsf-4.5). Instead, you could
put all the files *with their original filenames* (so xref's don't
break) in a directory named for the package. For example,
%p/lib/gcc4.5/info (living in the -compilers splitoff package). The
xrefs would resolve self-consistently among this specific gcc version
because they are pointing to the correct filename "in the same
directory". Bonus: you can just change --infodir= instead of having to
do a manual loop over all the filenames to move them.
