*Please* don't add the node links back!! I went to some trouble to get
rid of them all, because they make for an utter nightmare when you're
trying to add new material. They're only useful if you want to link
nodes in some fashion other than that implied by the chapter/section
structure, and as of yet I haven't heard anyone come up with a good
rationale for linking in any other way.
The replication of the TOC node with ifinfo and ifhtml is sufficient
to make the manual generate correctly with three versions of texinfo,
so I'm mystified as to why you think these other changes are necessary...
