I've committed some changes that will likely work for these files as well as the other files. It worked for me on the files I've tried. Please have a try. (While testing these changes I noticed that there doesn't seem to be any support in the standalone Info reader for varying lengths of file preambles in a split file (some mention of that here: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-texinfo/2013-08/msg00040.html), so there could be some more changes coming to do with tag table processing. )
