I agree that ignoring build problems is not a good idea, but I think
that instead of removing invalid xref's (or even arguing about their
usefulness), we should simply write the missing docs.  Until the
missing docs are written (assuming that the 1.30 change is reverted),
you can work around the problem by saying

        make MAKEINFO='makeinfo --force'
