I would like to avoid requiring a new texinfo to build sed
Why?
Personally, i was very happy to move to Texinfo 6.x, primarily
for the performance improvement.

Got it. I'll add it to the release list in README-hacking.
I see README-hacking has "update DTD and web pages" w/
instructions that use $ver instead of $TEXINFO_DTD_VERSION.
Should those instructions be changed, too?

Personally, i think synching it w/ ‘PACKAGE_VERSION’ is TRT, but
i am new to Texinfo hacking so maybe i'm missing something.

that C/Perl doesn't support hyphens in names. For command-line parsing,
however, IWBN if ‘--set float-name-in-xref=1’ could be used in place of
