Hi, I triggered makeinfo from texinfo-4.5 to segfault with the following construct:
@itemize @bullet @item on the same line that itemize
@item more text
@end itemize
Here is the output (... means repeated, up to a large number):
$ LANG=C;makeinfo bug_makeinfo.texi
bug_makeinfo.texi:24: @bullet expected `{...}'.
...
Too many errors! Gave up.
...
Segmentation fault
I tried to do a bt, but it is too long. There must be some recursion error.
I give the beginning of the bt, though:
(gdb) run
........
Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

I attach the .texi file.
