Not my experience. I see curved quotes, AFAIR. But even if this
isn't true, the Texinfo sources of the Emacs manual is not the place
to fix it, this should be fixed in Texinfo.

We use quoting ``..'' like this in Texinfo because this is supposed to
produce curved quotes, as printed quoted text is supposed to look. I
don't think it's right to change that because PDF looks wrong, it
isn't a problem with our manual.
Thanks.
