I eventually went with the minimal change: the function that fails due
to changes in how Texinfo 6.8 produces HTML was modified to skip the
problematic step of rewriting the TOC menu as a table (something that
wasn't possible to keep, because some of the information used for the
table is no longer there in the new HTML).  The rest of the "fixes" I
kept.

With that, I'm closing this bug.
