Do (info "(dir) Top")
and now turn on show-trailing-whitespace .
Do you see some lines have trailing whitespace?
No big deal but one would think if the programmer(s)
were aware, they wouldn't produce the trailing whitespace.

No, not in the file 'dir' provided as part of Emacs.  I'm guessing
those trailing spaces are result of updating your system-wide 'dir'
file, either manually or by install-info.  In the latter case, please
report this to the Texinfo project (preferably with a recipe to
reproduce the problem).

In any case, I don't think this is an Emacs problem.
