I think so, but from texi2html that was meant to be makeinfo, not from
the independent texi2html.  I think it comes from my reading of the manual

Indeed, firefox breaks at - in code.  To avoid that, "white-space:pre"
indeed works.  I believe that "white-space:nowrap" is actually better.
I'll put that in the TODO.
