Nope; we get line breaks in stuff like @code{\override
Voice.textscript #'padding = #3}.  :(

I'm not certain whether this constitutes a bug with texinfo itself
(i.e. I'm not going to argue about what the default formatting
should be), but it would definitely be nice if we could make our
backends (texi2pdf, texi2html) avoid newlines in such material.
I can't remember if this made its way onto the tracker or not.
