That's not what I see: node names like "A node with a @@@@foo" work
for me, producing "A node with a @foo" in the final output.

But don't run to add another pair of `@'s to your Texinfo files: this
is a bug which I already fixed (a patched binary will be available
RSN).  See my other message in this thread.

This problem exists in Texinfo 3.9 as well.  I'm not sure whether it's
a bug, or if usage of quotes in a node name is just verboten.  I will
look into it.
