Hello,
  according to my experience, people who run "info automake" expect
to get the whole Automake manual, not "automake Invocation".

I hear something like
  ``I tried "info automake", but it gave me an unusable man page''
And they feel trapped when I tell them to type "u" or "t" or start
with "info Automake" (capital `a') instead.

I'd like to make their experience with the info documentation better,
possibly by the patch below.

What do you think?

(I mailed an analogical bug report to bug-autoconf, see
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-autoconf/2007-01/msg00039.html
but I want to here from both lists before we come to a decision.)
