523 * Applied Karl Berry's patches to *.texinfo files, but not to
524 texinfo.tex; those diffs are in `berry-texinfo-tex-diffs'. (Karl's
525 new title page format is also not applied, since it requires
526 texinfo.tex changes.)
527
528 * Cleaned up `Makefile' and defined the `emacslibdir' directory
529 for the Project GNU development environment.
