Details:

Data: Ubuntu 12.04 64-bit on x86_64. Octave builds properly, then the build
errors out inside doc/interpreter. The last build from Monday worked fine.


$ make all

I see that the file octave/doc/interpreter/plot.txi has the following text in
line 65:


Use of @address@hidden @address@hidden and @code{patch} Functions


and somehow the characters for @ and {} are being converted to their numeric
code values, and makeinfo treats the text on that line as a filespec.
