With the full “texlive” package I also see “not defined for Texinfo” in
the logs, but the characters use octal notation instead of double caret
notation. The generated guix.de.toc contains the correct characters
with umlauts, while the .toc file generated with the modular TeX Live
contains caret-notated characters.
I’ll try to figure out why that is.
