Yes, that's what I was siggesting.  Once bsd.info.mk and/or install-info 
can be taught to use a replacement info dir entry, then the tweaks to 
gmp.texi and reno.texi can be removed.

There is a switch to install-info, ``--entry'' at first glance looked like 
it should be able to solve the problem, but instead it causes an 
additional "dir" entry instead of replacing the embedded string.  We need 
some way of supplying an alternative "dir" entry.

Trying to sed the .texi files into the obj dir is messy, especially when 
it's doing @include's to the source directory..  Getting bmake to do the 
right thing sometimes is a pain.

Cheers,
-Peter
