Btw, why the need to specify --enable-encoding?  Why don't makeinfo
process @documentencoding by default?

The problem with the command-line switch is that older versions of
makeinfo will refuse to go ahead when an unknown to them switch is
specified on the command line, whereas an unknown directive can be
ignored by specifying --force (which we already do in Emacs).
