OK, I will install this soon, unless Juri (or someone else) comes up
with something more elegant.

That would fail in other cases.

Yes, but here we make worse mistakes: not only we should "see" with
wrong capitalization, we also make the impression that @ref shows as
"see" in Emacs (it doesn't) and @pxref shows "*note" (it shows "see").

(I think the text should have a note that in Emacs these
cross-references will look differently, but that's a patch to be
submitted to the Texinfo developers.)
