Re: m4 lines handled everywhere?

    The configuration variable is CPP_LINE_DIRECTIVES.

Great.

It seems to me that we also need to do something about texi2dvi output.
Right now, given input with #line directives, running (say)
  makeinfo --pdf cppline.tex
does end up typesetting the #lines.  (Not surprising.)

We could have a command line option, say --no-cpp-line-directives, which
texi2any passes along, and I could implement that in texi2dvi (with
sed).

Alternatively, if you could capture the preprocessed output in texi2any
and send that to texi2dvi when --dvi/--ps/--pdf is given, the cmdline
option wouldn't be needed; people could just use --set-init-variable.

wdyt?

Thanks,
k
