bug in texinfo-upd.el (or related file)

Take the file tramp.texi, included in the man directory of the Emacs
CVS.  (Probably better a safe copy of it.)

Do C-u C-c C-u m then C-x C-s then C-c C-m C-b.

Result:

===File ~/tramplog==========================================
cd /home/teirllm/info/
makeinfo --fill-column=70 /home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi
/home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi:134: Reached eof before matching @end ifset.
/home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi:127: No matching address@hidden menu'.
/home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi:81: Next reference to nonexistent node `Overview' 
(perhaps incorrect sectioning?).
/home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi:133: Menu reference to nonexistent node `History' 
(perhaps incorrect sectioning?).
/home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi:132: Menu reference to nonexistent node 
`Obtaining @sc{tramp}' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?).
/home/teirllm/info/tramp.texi:128: Menu reference to nonexistent node 
`Overview' (perhaps incorrect sectioning?).
makeinfo: Removing output file `../info/tramp' due to errors; use --force to 
preserve.

Compilation exited abnormally with code 2 at Sun Jun 15 13:18:08
============================================================

What happens on line 133 and following is:

@ifset tramp-inst
* Installation::                Installing @tramp{} with your 
@value{emacs-name}.
@end ifset

tramp-inst is not set.  Hence _all_ the lines above should disappear.
The first line stays, however, leading to an unmatched @ifset.

If one runs makeinfo without prior C-u C-c C-u m, there are no
problems (as long as you are using makeinfo version at least 4.4, but
that is another story).

Sincerely,

Luc.
