Why not simply have mkdoc do the inclusion itself?  After all, even now
mkdoc reads all the .txh files into memory first and only then dumps
them to libc2.tex; it would be quite easy to make it dump pieces of text
more than once.  And I'd also like mkdoc to read libc.tex and actually
output one single Texinfo file which neither includes other files nor is
included by other files; then it would be easier to use mkdoc for
utils.info as well as libc.info.
