binary mounts, unix-style line endings:
  bzip2-1.0.1 manual.texi -- works fine; output identical to previous
versions except for 'makeinfo version string' differences and minor
formatting changes.

binary mounts, unix-style line endings:
  cvs-1.11.0 cvs.texinfo, cvsclient.texinfo -- works fine; output
identical to previous versions except for minor formatting changes
(original info file in the distro were produced using makeinfo-4.0 on
linux...)

I'll let someone else that uses textmode stuff more than I worry about
that.  Thanks for fix, Chris.
