PS I don't think that's a great solution, but I guess it's good enough.
So if there's any interest in Texinfo retaining info.info, then Andreas,
I suggest you make that change in the Emacs sources (ie, make Emacs
install plain "info", like it used to, not "info.info").
But if no-one feels that Texinfo needs it, then no need to bother.
