Thanks. I bet this is texinfo 7.0. Does downgrading to 6.9 work?

7.0.1 is going to be cut soon which may help.
Comment 2 Kobboi 2022-11-23 23:08:30 UTC
Ha, I was just doing that :) Downgrading to texinfo-6.8 is a workaround indeed.

Could you report this upstream on bug-texinfo?
Comment 4 Sam James archtester Gentoo Infrastructure gentoo-dev Security 2022-12-01 04:31:11 UTC
and is 7.0.1 any better?
