Another Texinfo 6.1 issue. The one breaking R is a change to texi2dvi,
which for the purpose of building R can be fixed with
R_TEXI2DVICMD=emulation. The Texinfo maintainers have meanhile provided
a patch we're testing on CRAN: if it works, we'll send the patch to
Norbert Preining as texinfo maintainer.
The above breakage seems from texinfo.tex: it goes away when using the
version from Texinfo 6.0, and remains when using the most current
texinfo.tex from <svn://svn.savannah.gnu.org/texinfo/trunk>.
