Bug Description

vm.texinfo contains UTF-8 umlauts

makeinfo vm.texinfo -o vm.info
utf8 "\xFC" does not map to Unicode at /usr/local/share/texinfo/Texinfo/ParserNonXS.pm line 1796, <FH> line 7091.
Malformed UTF-8 character: \xfc\x6c\x6c\x65\x72\x0a (unexpected non-continuation byte 0x6c, immediately after start byte 0xfc; need 6 bytes, got 1) in pattern match (m//) at /usr/local/share/texinfo/Texinfo/ParserNonXS.pm line 3364.
Malformed UTF-8 character (fatal) at /usr/local/share/texinfo/Texinfo/ParserNonXS.pm line 3364.

This is because tex.info file doesn't declare encoding with

 @documentencoding ISO-8859-1

fix pending if I can remember how to push it ;-)
