False alarm!  The standalone Info reader works OK.

Yesterday I wrote:

      I happened to look at an Info file both in GNU Emacs Info and in the
      standalone Info.  The GNU Emacs Info correctly shows the @copying
      text, but the standalone Info does not.

Luc Teirlinck <teirllm@dms.auburn.edu> asked:

   Do your INFOPATH environment variable and your
   `Info-directory-list' Elisp variable contain the same directories
   in exactly the same order?  Your stand-alone Info reader could be
   using an old .info file.

That was the problem.  Since I never use it, I had forgot that the
standalone Info might be somewhat different from the GNU Emacs Info.
It was, and now that I go to the right .info files, all is well.

My apologies for all this.
