Unsurprisingly, we are not the only ones to hit that problem:
http://osdir.com/ml/bug-texinfo-gnu/2009-04/msg00032.html

The message indicates that GNU texinfo plans to transition to
texi2html. But there has been no release of GNU texinfo that
includes it (last release that I can find appears to be 4.13a
published Sep 2008). There is a release of texi2html (5.0),
that looks like it was published in July 2010. Perhaps we can
try that.
