Hi all,

I've installed the 24.3.91 pretest on three systems

-- Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.4 (Santiago)
GNU Emacs 24.3.91.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.18.9) of 
2014-05-12 on srevilak-l

-- openSUSE 13.1 (Bottle) (x86_64)
GNU Emacs 24.3.91.1 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.22) of 
2014-05-16 on sunny

-- Debian 7.4
GNU Emacs 24.3.91.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10) of 2014-05-16 on 
srevilak


There was one minor surprise in the Debian 7.4 installation.  During
"make install", I received several screenfulls of

  See the man page for ginstall-info for command line arguments
  This is not dpkg install-info anymore, but GNU install-info

I haven't noticed any ill-effects from this (i.e., info mode seems to
work properly), but the screenfulls of warnings were a bit of a
surprise.
