I have difficulty understanding the problem, and thus the proposed
solution.  I think the difficulty stems from the fact that you didn't
show the Texinfo source of the Info output which you posted.  Without
that, it's hard to decide whether the problem is with Emacs, or with
Texinfo's 'makeinfo', or with the original Texinfo source as authored
by whoever wrote those manuals (which are not Emacs manuals).

So please show the Texinfo sources of these snippets.

Thanks.
