The .info files are generated files -- the documentation goes into
doc/misc/gnus.texi (and I expanded upon the feature somewhat based on
your email).

The patch is just small enough to go through without a copyright
assignment (and I forgot to mark the commit as such; sigh), but for any
future patches you might send, we'd need to have the copyright assigned
to the FSF.  Would you be willing to do that?  If so, we could start the
ball rolling now on the paperwork, so that any subsequent patches can be
applied faster.
