Is it possible to make the weekly snapshot send the results to me as
well (nightly is too much for me ;-)?  If so, I could probably take
corrective action...

In the short run, nothing.  DJTAR, the program used to unpack the
distribution (run by djunpack.bat) automatically renames the .info-*
files if the unpacking is done on DOS (as opposed to Windows 9X where
DJGPP supports long file names).  Of course, the Info tag tables need
to be edited manually, or else the Info reader will complain...

In the long run, we could consider switchting to bfd-1, gdb-1,
gdbint-1, etc., to avoid these problems altogether; this is what Emacs
and Texinfo distributions do, and I have yet to see a problem.  All it
takes is to replace this line:

  @setfilename gdb.info

with this:

  @setfilename gdb
