Is there any compatible solution?  (info "(texinfo)itemx") doesn't
work at all in XEmacs (21.4.12).  (Info-goto-node "(texinfo)itemx")
works in XEmacs and in Emacs after info has been loaded.  Gnus 5.9
already adds an autoload for `Info-goto-node'.

Maybe it would be better to add an autoload for `Info-goto-node' in
Emacs?

Bye, Reiner.
