I notice that some of the larger info files, notably gcc & related files
plus the Cygwin-ug files, are in /usr/share/info as xxx.info.gz files.
Is info (supposed to be) able to handle these directly? If so, is
special action appropriate to get them listed in the dir file -- on my
system they are simply not being seen.
Of course, I can unzip them - but why use up the space if info can do it
dynamically.
