PATCH 21.5
The texinfo source files are version-specific. We currently have the
files for texinfo 5.2 in our repository, but they cannot be built with
texinfo 4.13a, which some of our users still have. We shouldn't be
distributing some other project's info files anyway. This patch
(attached) removes them from our repository.

By request, I waited to take action on this so that Windows developers
could comment on whether we should stash the files somewhere instead
of dropping them entirely. It's been over a month now with no
comments. If somebody has something to say, please speak up now. If
there are no comments in the next couple of days, I will commit this
as is.

Just commit it. It is easier to understand what consequences it will
have if it is gone. Plus I guess that the native windows build will
not bother about texinfo to begin with, there are more challenging
tasks to take on there.

They're stashed in hg, after all.
