Before the texinfo.tex change, I ran 'makeinfo > calc.texi' and it worked fine. I just bootstrapped again after the 22.1 version number update, and it failed again in calc.texi like this calc.texi:740: Unknown command `LaTeX'. calc.texi:740: Misplaced {. calc.texi:740: Misplaced }. etc... so my change to texinfo.tex wasn't sufficient to get rid of this. If makeinfo doesn't use it, why do we include it? makeinfo --version says: makeinfo (GNU texinfo) 4.3 Copyright (C) 2002 Free Software Foundation, Inc. There is NO warranty.
