Uh, sorry guys, but you seem to have both misunderstood me.  What I
was up to is the fact that the @unnumbered entry in libc.texinfo is
*not* "Library Index", but only "Index".  My question was about this
point.  What's right for the @unnumbered entry, just "Index" as in
libc.texinfo or ""Library Index" as Terry proposed now?
