* doc/automake.texi: Specify @documentencoding and
@documentlanguage, to prevent encoding errors for parts of this
input file that are UTF-8.  This also causes the .info output to
use curly quotes, which is easier to read though it does assume
UTF-8 support.

Hi Paul, thanks for the patch.

Just one meta-nit: for issues this small, there is no need to open
a new bug report just to send the patch.  Simply send it to the 
automake-patches list instead.
