OK, you're right.
There are 2 mechanisms for inserting the Info-page.
The default uses &add_document_info_page
which inserts \textohtmlinfopage at the end of the document,
unless...
&add_document_info_page if (($INFO) && !(/\\htmlinfo/));
Thus if \htmlinfo occurs within the document, then what I desribed
in the previous message is correct.
If \htmlinfo does not occur, then \textohtmlinfopage will be expanded
*before* any post-processing is done.
Perhaps it is better for &add_document_info_page to simply insert
$infopage_mark ?
Alternatively, the &replace_infopage should occur earlier in the
post-processing, since it may result in other material containing
markers that have yet to be replaced.

I think it will depend upon how complicated is the expansion that
you define, and whether you do it in Perl or in LaTeX .
I'd be interested in seeing the results.
