The problem appears only to occur when the @tex directive follows the
"\input texinfo" line directly. The @include directive is a red herring:
you get the same error if you remove the blank line after "\input texinfo" in
foo.texinfo:
\input texinfo
@tex
\ifx\luatexversion\thisisundefined
\else
\directlua{
dofile(kpse.find_file("foobar.lua")) }
\fi
@end tex
foobar
@bye
It appears to be related to code to support Texinfo as a "pre-dumped" TeX
format. I'm not aware if this is ever used, but this support was always
present and previously relied on the presence of a "@setfilename" line
before we made that command optional in Texinfo files. We try to run
this code as soon as possible.
I've made a change to support @tex (and other block commands) on the
second line of the input file (version 2023-09-12.17). Please let me know
if it works.
