Hi,

in my version of docbook2x, the --to-stdout option is broken and requires the following patch:

diff -u -L /sudo:root@lola.quinscape.zz:/usr/bin/db2x_texixml -L /tmp/buffer-content-236002qn /tmp/tramp.23600D1t /tmp/buffer-content-236002qn --- /tmp/buffer-content-236002qn +++ /sudo:root@lola.quinscape.zz:/usr/bin/db2x_texixml

After fixing this (anybody got a clue how to get this upstream?) I get
the following problem upon make info:

makeinfo --no-split gitman.texi
