Troubles with make/install for localized info

Agreed on this point -- it could make a big mess.

I don't think we need to give up Makefile.am.
I find that "infodir = /FOOBAR" in Makefile.am
has the expected effect (that make install copies the info
file to /FOOBAR). I will next try to put
"infodir = @prefix@/info/es" (or pt as appropriate)
and see if make install then works as expected.

Thanks for your help,
Robert
