By coincidence, there was a recent bug report pointing that TeX barfed on node names with trailing whitespace, while makeinfo accepted them. I will change makeinfo to make this an error, or at least a warning, and remove such trailing whitespace so it doesn't get into the output. I can't find anything in the documentation that says explicitly one way or the other. I'll change that. Thanks, k
