Re: [help-texinfo] Cross-References display undefined when using @include

[Christopher Dimech]

This is a basic test composed of two files "2019308.texi" (main with 
cross-references) and
"bibl.texi" (bibliography with an anchor).

Cross-References do work (when one clicks on the reference, it directs you to 
the cross-reference).
However the pdf file shows
<undefined> [bibl-Semenza-et-Ghirotti-2000], page <undefined>

However when one uses @setfilename 2019308.info (comment the line out), one gets
[bibl-Semenza-et-Ghirotti-2000], page 2

Have been under the impression that if there is no @setfilename line, makeinfo 
uses the
input file name to determine the output name.  Was aware that @setfilename used 
to be
required by the Texinfo processors, but I've read it is no longer 
required.However, this
test shows otherwise.
