Hi,

I just tried to build the latest from cvs and got these fatal errors
during the 'make install' stage:

makeinfo --split-size=5000000 -I ../../../src/gdb/doc/../../readline/doc
-I ../../../src/gdb/doc/../mi -I ../../../src/gdb/doc \
        -o gdb.info ../../../src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo
../../../src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:7035: warning: @strong{Note:} produces
a spurious cross-reference in Info; reword to avoid that.
../../../src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:21102: @dots expected braces.
../../../src/gdb/doc/gdb.texinfo:21102: @- missing close brace.
makeinfo: Removing output file `gdb.info' due to errors; use --force to
preserve.


The attached patch get things working again for my system (debian-sarge,
texinfo-4.7, teTeX-2.0.2). I'm no texinfo wizard, so please let me know
if there are better fixes.

This is probably an obvious fix, but I'm asking for approval anyways.

Thanks.
