In fact using a period is a nono. This period is the end of the reference so 
the reader will take only up-to the period. So it will make fail other readers 
too.
 I don't know why it (and other things) isn't  reported by makeinfo. And 
worst: I don't know why they use such a silly way to signal a cross reference, 
but that's outside the scope of this list.
