I've abandoned texi2html altogether. Apparently the FSF doesn't want
any more texi2foo scripts circulating anymore; instead, it wants
people to concentrate on building & improving the filters within
'makeinfo'.

So now I run 'makeinfo --html' instead. So does our 'make doc'
target.

(*) The only exception to this rule, apparently, is 'texi2dvi'.
That's the only script sanctioned by the FSF.
