This patch should still build with older Texinfo versions (albeit, I
hadn't tested 4.7, I missed that requirement).  The unreleased version
should be installed on the server building HTML documentation as it
produces better results w.r.t clickable anchors and index-in-table
handling.  It should not be a hard dependency, and should only degrade
to its current state should in-dev Texinfo be missing.

It might be worth bumping the minimum, 4.7 is a version from 2004; in
the meanwhile, I'll try a few older versions too.

Thanks, have a lovely day.
