Hi,

I did not think about that.  This is even better than what I did.

It should do it automatically instead of using @anchor everytime,
since this would be repetitive.  I also saw that Emacs has sometimes
the same problem.  If this affects Texinfo to generate a different
output, we may should move it to the Texinfo ML (do they have one?).
Therefore not only Guix would profit from it.
