I think this is a texinfo.tex bug and have sent a patch to the Texinfo 
maintainers; if accepted we can import the new texinfo.tex to trunk and 
4.2 branch.

The difference between failing to build for some people and mess in the 
output for others is that some TeX installations include a file called 
just ".tex" and others don't.  If you have that file, it includes that 
(and produces mess in the output), otherwise it gives the error you had.
