Thanks.

Now that typo-like patches don't incur much overhead, how about killing
trailing white space and one overlong line in the DVI output of
standards.texi?  The patch avoids `@/' for the benefit of older texinfo
versions (which are still wide-spread).

Cheers,
Ralf

        * standards.texi: Remove trailing white space.
        (References): Insert line break to avoid overlong line.
