  The corresponding source:

  Library interface versions, Library interface versions, libtool, GNU
  Libtool}).

  Isn't that stupid American typography rule requires the period to be
  moved inside the parenthesis?
  
It seems to be makeinfo-specific, I get the right results with
texinfo.tex.  (I tried with the latest release now, not with the one
in GMP; the ;latter might behave differently.)

I think I will not worry too much about this.
