[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Hi, the guix info pages display fine when viewed with the normal info
command, but when viewed with emacs (C-h i m Guix) there is strange
issue where text between forward and backquote symbols shows up as hex
numbers. See section 6.2 for a representative example. I get the same
result if I run `emacs -q'. I've attached some screenshots which
hopefully make it through the filters.
